Filipino Word - Tantsa

Tantsa, some also spells the word tancha, is a Filipino word very much still used. The word means estimate.

To say or tell someone to "estimate," the suffix hin is attached to the word - tantsahin/tanchahin.

Tantsahin mo (Estimate) how much salt you have to use.

Also used in asking a question like -
Anong tantsa mo? (What do you think?) Do you think they got the items we asked them to buy?
