Origin of fore
Middle English, from Old English fÅr(e)-, from Proto-Germanic *fura-, *furai- (“before, in front of, for"), from Proto-Indo-European *per-, *pr- (“before, formerly; through, throughout"). Akin to Old Saxon and Old High German fora-, Gothic ð†ðŒ°ðŒ¿ð‚ðŒ°- (faura-) (see ð†ðŒ°ðŒ¿ð‚ðŒ° (faura)).
