It means the same thing as when you or any other creature sneezes. So basically it means they need to get germs out of their system.
It sounds a lot like a "sssssst" noise, rather like when a cat sneezes.
If your guinea pig sneezes a lot, then you should take him/her to the vet.
It might have a slight cold, or something might have tickled its nose. If they continue to sneeze then it's best to ask a vet.
Yes. It is natural to them, just like it is to humans.
It means the guinea pig had to sneeze
Its usually normal just like you or I sneeze. Guinea Pigs can have colds.. with other symptoms and sneezing is one sign your guinea pig might have a cold.

all the reasons you do
Yes Guinea Pigs do sneeze. it is a strange sound that can not be heard from a long distance, as it is very quiet. When a sneeze is made, the Pig will vibrate and shake for a very, very short time.
coz it is scared or ill!
They got their name because when first discovered by Europeans guinea pig's made a high screeching sound like a pig.
No it does not relate to New Guinea. Europeans sold them for about a guinea, an ancient currency. The pig part comes from the fact that they sound like pigs.
It is spelled "guinea pig". You got it right! :)
its a sound a guinea pigs makes that means its angry.
Guinea Pigs are not from New Guinea, as many people think, they are actually from South America where they were roasted for food. They sold them for one Guinea (money) hence, the Guinea part in Guinea Pig. Also they sound like snorting pigs hence, the Pig part in Guinea Pig.For more information go to Guinea Pig Lnyx
it mean that he or she is happy with its owner... (different person than from up there) it could also mean the guinea pig is afraid because my guinea pig does that when he hears a high pitched noise like when i play the harmonica
They call them guinea pigs because they squeak. Pigs snort. But, it does kinda sound like a pig. (:
