AaSpelling

Foresight begins with fore-, meaning before (not 'forsight').

Foresight की शुरुआत fore- से होती है, जिसका अर्थ 'पहले' है ('forsight' गलत है)।

?Which word?

Do not confuse foresight (seeing what will happen before it happens) and hindsight (understanding a situation only after it has happened).

Foresight (घटना से पहले ही समझ लेना कि क्या होगा) और hindsight (घटना हो जाने के बाद उसे समझना) में भ्रम न करें।
