Forenotice

/ˈfɔːrnoʊtɪs/ noun

Definition

advance warning or notification given beforehand.

Etymology

Combination of 'fore-' (before) and 'notice' from Latin 'notitia' (knowledge, information). The compound arose to describe formal advance warnings.

Kelly Says

English loved combining 'fore-' with announcement words—'forenotice,' 'forewarning,' 'forenotification'—because timing is crucial when you need to prepare people for something coming.
