Common Misspellings for PREEXIST

Etymology of PREEXIST

The word "preexist" is derived from the Latin word "praeexistere", which is a combination of two Latin roots: "prae" meaning "before" or "prior to", and "existere" meaning "to come into being" or "to be present". When these roots are combined, "praeexistere" literally means "to exist before" or "to exist prior to something". The term has been adopted into English with a similar meaning, referring to something that exists before or prior to something else.
