Why this word is great
PREVISE — [Verb] To foresee or forewarn. From Latin praevisus, past participle of praevidēre ("to foresee"), from prae- ("before") + vidēre ("to see"). Unlike "predict" (which implies forecasting based on evidence or reasoning) or "forewarn" (which is strictly cautionary), "previse" carries the weight of unspoken intuition—a knowledge that arrives unbidden, like a shadow before the storm. It is the chill that raises the hairs on your neck moments before the phone rings with bad news, the fleeting image of a stranger’s face that later appears in a crowd, or the inexplicable certainty that the path ahead is wrong, though no sign marks it so. To previse is to glimpse the shape of what has not yet come, and to carry that knowledge like a secret.
