to forecast VS to foresee
Hi guys,
I'd like know if there are differences with these verbs.
Let me know if it's necessary provide a context.
Thanks you. Have a nice day.
Sorry my fault. Wrong section https://www.italki.com/discussion/114537
Gohar worte:
"Foresee" is not scientifical, more based on instincts,to know about something before it happens. "Forecast" is based on more solid data. For example: To forecast the weather. To foresee the future.

Hope that helps
