Definition of
Conjecture
A statement that might be true (based on some research or reasoning), but is not proven.
Like a hypothesis, but not stated in as formal, or testable, way.
So a conjecture is like an educated guess.
Example: I heard the sound of a plastic bag, so I conjecture there might be some food!
