Etymology

edit

From praeter (besides) and a form of hic (this). Although the second part appears to be identical with the feminine ablative singular, a simple univerbation of preposition + prepositional object could synchronically only originate from praeter haec. Compare praetereā.

Pronunciation

edit

Adverb

edit

praeterhāc (not comparable)

  1. (Plautinian) beyond this
