prejacentadj.n.

Brit.

/priːˈdʒeɪsnt/, U.S.

/priˈdʒeɪs(ə)nt/

Forms: 1500s–1600s preiacent, 1500s– prejacent.

Origin: Perhaps of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Perhaps also partly formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: French prejacent ; Latin praeiacent- , praeiacens ; pre- prefix, jacent adj.

Etymology: < Middle French prejacent (French †préjacent ) previously existing (early 16th cent.), placed in front (1532 in an apparently isolated attestation) and its etymon post-classical Latin praeiacent-, praeiacens pre-existent (frequently from c1120 in British sources), lying or situated in front (early 13th cent. in a British source), (in Logic) constituting the original proposition from which another is inferred (c1260, a1349, c1360 in British sources), use as adjective of classical Latin praeiacent- , praeiacēns , present participle of praeiacēre to lie in front < prae- pre- prefix + iacēre to lie (see jacent adj.). In sense 2 perhaps independently < pre- prefix + jacent adj., after adjacent adj.
