pre- + signification

Noun

presignification (plural presignifications)

  1. The act of signifying or showing beforehand.
    • Isaac Barrow
      To this kind we may refer the presignification and prediction of future events, especially those which are contingent, and depend upon man's free choice; to the doing of which nothing is more evident in itself, nor more acknowledged by all, than that a power or wisdom supernatural is required []
