英文释义
动词 v.
-
To proclaim in public; especially (of the Pope) to announce the appointment of a bishop.
— The song grew louder, with more insistent, magical tones, surging and falling in unearthly modulations, the very speech of incantation; and the drum beat madly, and the pipe shrilled to a scream, summoning all to issue forth, to leave their peaceful hearths; for a strange rite was preconized in their midst.
词源
From Latin praecō (“herald”) + -ize or Latin praecōnizō.
