From prae-(“before, in front”) + dicō(“dedicate, assign to”).
Et ideo in rebus, ex materia et forma compositis, essentia non est omnino idem quod subiectum; unde non prædicatur de subiecto: non enim dicitur quod Socrates sit una humanitas. -Sanctus Thomas Aquinas, Quæstiones de Potentia Dei, Q9, A1 | And therefore in things, from matter and form composite, essence is not altogether the same as the subject; whence it can not be predicated concerning the subject: for it is not said that Socrates might be the one human-nature.
