Some terms prefixed withfor-(“far, very”) have alternative spellings beginning withfore-, though they do not derive fromfore- (they do not mean “before”); examples includeforeshame,foreslack,foreslow. Conversely, some terms prefixed withfore- have alternative spellings beginning withfor-, such asforbear; the form withfore- is usually preferred to avoid ambiguity, with the conspicuous exception offorward/forwards. In some cases analogous words with both prefixes are found, as inforego(“go before”) vs.forgo(“do without”),forebear(“ancestor”) vs.forbear(“restrain oneself”), andforespeak(“speak before, foretell”) vs.forspeak(“speak ill of; curse; charm, bewitch”).[1] The prefixes might be distantly related (from Proto-Indo-European), but are distinct in English.
"Occurring only in words adopted from French, as forcatch v., forfeit n., forprise n., represents Old French for-, fors-, identical with fors adv. (modern French hors) outside, out."[2]
This element appears in a great number of adapted loanwords from German, (Middle) Low German and Dutch, to renderver- orvor-, such as inforekomme(“to occur, to seem”). In these cases, it may represent senses that are no longer, or never were, productive in Danish.
