Definition
猜猜 is the reduplicated form of the verb 猜 (cāi), meaning 'to guess'. Reduplication softens the tone and turns the action into a casual suggestion or invitation — like saying 'take a guess' or 'have a guess' in English. It's often used in informal situations, games, or when encouraging someone to try.
