Etymology
تَقْدِيم is the verbal noun of the Form II verb قَدَّمَ, meaning to present, offer, or move forward. Both come from the Semitic root ق-د-م, which carries the idea of being in front or going before. The تَفْعِيل pattern names the action of the verb, so تَقْدِيم is the act of putting something forward. The same root yields words for what is ancient, what comes first, and what lies ahead.
