ISTQB glossary definition:

error guessing: A test design technique where the experience of the tester is used to

anticipate what defects might be present in the component or system under test as a result

of errors made, and to design tests specifically to expose them.

See here: http:/www.istqb.org/downloads/glossary-current.pdf Process of making an educated guess as to other types of areas to be tested. Like an example : Date field what the tester think for 30 and 31 date entry .but with having an experience of 5-10 years experience they get have an intuitions & guess a date for 29 Feb .
