Shining or glowing brightly in front; luminous in appearance as an advance sign or indication.
From Latin 'fore' (before) + 'escent' (becoming, from 'escere'). This rare adjective combines the prefix with the luminous suffix suggesting gradual brightening.
This ultra-rare word appears almost nowhere in modern English, but it represents how medieval scholars loved combining Latin prefixes with light-related suffixes to create poetic descriptors.
