Did You Know?

The verb presage was predated by a noun presage, meaning "omen." Both forms derive from the Latin prefix prae- combined with the adjective sagus, meaning "prophetic." Foretell, predict, forecast, prophesy, and presage all mean "to tell beforehand." Foretell applies to telling of a future event by any procedure or any source of information ("seers foretold the calamity"). Predict commonly implies inference from facts or accepted laws of nature ("astronomers predicted an eclipse"). Forecast implies anticipating eventualities and is usually concerned with probabilities ("the meteorologist forecasts snow"). Prophesy connotes inspired or mystic knowledge of the future ("the soothsayer prophesied a new messiah"). Presage may apply to suggesting a coming event or indicating its likelihood.

动词 presage 出现之前就有了名词 presage,意思是“omen「预兆」”。两种形式都源自拉丁语前缀prae-结合形容词sagus(意为“prophetic「预言」”)。foretell,predict,forecast,prophesy and presage 都意味着“to tell beforehand「事前告知」”。 Foretell 表通过任何程序或任何信息来源告知未来的事件(“seers foretold the calamity「预言者是灾难的预兆」”)。Predict 表根据事实或公认的自然规律推断(“astronomers predicted an eclipse「天文学家预测日食」”)。Forecast意味着预测可能发生的情况,通常会与概率相关(“the meteorologist forecasts snow「气象学家预报降雪」”)。 Prophesy表未来的灵感或神秘知识(“the soothsayer prophesied a new messiah「占卜者预言了一个新的弥赛亚」”)。Presage 表即将发生的事件或表明其可能性。
