Definition
Imagination of something beforehand; preliminary imagining or visualization of events before they occur.
Etymology
From 'fore-' meaning before, combined with 'imagination' from Latin 'imaginari' meaning 'to picture mentally.' The prefix indicates prior or advanced imagining.
Kelly Says
Neuroscientists studying mental simulation found that our brains constantly use foreimagination—visualizing possible futures helps us prepare for them, which is why anxious people often imagine worst-case scenarios compulsively.
