Hey Veeky Forums
I am trying to remember a specific word. It starts with pre-. It means "this argument came first, therefor it can exist without this other argument." Like "A predates B." But it's not predates, preempts, presumes, nor presupposes. It's definitely a verb.
This isn't for school or anything, it's just annoying me that I can't remember
precum.
precedes
Maybe, but it doesn't feel right. Precedes is mostly just chronological
A is a prerequisite for B?
how about just good ol' precede
Prior
Precondition.
>this argument came first, therefor it can exist without this other argument.
Can you explain more what you mean by that? I don't understand what this means.
Precludes
As I remember it, the word is kinda specific for logic. Like, A is true whether or not B is true.
A does not presuppose B?
predicate
predisposition
presupposition, presupposes
I'm getting less sure that this word actually exists, but this is a reasonable definition for what I'm thinking of
It might not start with a P. I feel like there's a word for what you're talking about in propositional logic but it's been so long since I did any of that that I don't remember.
A antecedes B
>It might not start with a P
You might be right. I have had this problem before with other words, but had the wrong prefix.
predecessor ?
"a priori"?
Maybe I got the prefix wrong, but it's definitely an active, present-tense verb. A ___s B.
premise
>predicate
winrar?
precept
