Origin:
The word "presage" comes from the Latin word "praesagium," which means "a foretelling or prognostication." This word is derived from the verb "praesagire," which means "to foresee" or "to have a presentiment." The Proto-Indo-European root pr̥-sēkʷ-yo- also gives rise to words such as "predict" and "prophecy."
The word "presage" was first used in English in the early 14th century. It has been used in a variety of contexts over the centuries, but its basic meaning has remained the same: a sign or indication of something that is going to happen in the future.
