To foresee is to think or know that something is going to happen later — not magic, usually from experience or a clear sign. You can foresee trouble if two angry people must share a small office.

To foreseeforesee is to think or know that something is going to happen later是指認為或知道某件事以後會發生——not magic不是什麼魔法，usually from experience or a clear sign通常是根據經驗或明顯的跡象。You can foresee trouble你可以foresee（預見）麻煩，if two angry people must share a small office如果兩個生氣的人得共用一間小辦公室。

It is a little formal. In chat, people more often say “I knew that would happen” or “I can see this coming.” Though actually, nobody truly sees the whole future; we use foresee for a strong, reasoned guess, and later it can look obvious.

It is a little formal這個字有點正式。In chat聊天時，people more often say大家比較常說“I knew that would happen”「我就知道會這樣」or “I can see this coming.”或「我看得出這要發生了」。Though actually不過其實，nobody truly sees the whole future沒有人真的能看到整個未來；we use foresee for a strong, reasoned guess我們用foresee來指一種有根據、很有把握的猜測，and later it can look obvious而事後看常常會覺得理所當然。

Companies like to say they “could not have foreseen” a problem when they want to sound less to blame. The noun that sits beside it is foresight: that is the ability, not the verb.

Companies like to say公司喜歡說they “could not have foreseen” a problem他們『無法foresee（預見）』某個問題，when they want to sound less to blame好讓自己聽起來責任比較小。The noun that sits beside it跟它相對應的名詞is foresight是foresight：that is the ability, not the verb那是指這種能力，不是動詞。
