Definition
Anticipation is the act of expecting something to happen, often with excitement or anxiety. It can involve both mental preparation and emotional buildup.
Etymology
From Latin 'anticipatio', from 'anticipare' meaning 'to take before'. The English noun developed alongside the verb 'anticipate'.
Kelly Says
Psychologists have found that anticipation can be as emotionally powerful as the event itself—sometimes more. Looking forward to a vacation can give you weeks of happiness before you even pack a bag.
