A bad prostitution results to a constitution?
Good constitution must be called prostitution
Only if you don’t bother to learn what the words you use mean.
Inherited from Middle English con-, from Latin con-, from cum (“with”). … Indicating a common origin, from, coming from the root: consequence as what comes from the sequence
So kids can be called… Cumsequences?..
Only if you are a really bad father.
prosequence would probably be… before sequence?
I think that would be presequence.
Pro means on behalf of or forward, so a prosequence would be something that pushes the sequence forward, a prosequence would be something like, “you know there is a bomb that is about to go off, and if you do not dismantle it, your child will die. So you must attempt to defuse the bomb at the risk of your own life”.
The knowledge of and opportunity to act to defuse the bomb is the prosequence that has led you to this point.
It could also be something like you were walking by a gas station and your hand started itching, so you went and bought a lottery ticket and won the lottery. The itchy hand would be the prosequence that pushed you towards winning the lottery.
That is the “antecedent”,
Antecedent: A preceding occurrence, cause, or event.
That’s actually a very good catch.
I didn’t think about the word antecedent, but I would say that there is a slight linguistic difference between an antecedent and a prosequence.
A prosequence is a sequence of events, whereas an antecedent doesn’t have to necessarily be a series of events.
For instance, in order to have a sequel to a book, you have to have the original book. The original book would be the antecedent of the sequel, whereas the prosequence of the sequel would be writing the first book, which led to the series of events that caused the second book to be written.
So every prosequence would be an antecedent, but not every antecedent would be a prosequence.
That being said, I am just making up words, so if the world disagrees with my definitions, then the world gets to choose what they prefer, because that’s how language works.
Just like the creator of the word GIF pronounces it as JIF, even though everyone knows its GIF.
Fair, antecedent is usually referring to a singular event/trigger.
Also 100% on board with GIF ignoring the original authors intent.

I think he was talking about the con_ in consequence
wait until you find out what the opposite of progress is
Antigress
We should change the name to that for accuracy.
I guess Funeral Processions are a good thing?
Wtf is a Funeral Concession? Only transporting half of a body?
I’d sell ice-pops at a funeral concessions stand, that’s for sure.
Using con the same way it would mean everyone at the funeral dies.
I fear there are heavy “lunch is served” overtones to this, and I don’t mean a catered meal 😬
So you could have a prosequence with a prostitute, but a bad experience would be a consequence of a constitute?
The more I think about this the I like it.
