foreboded

"In allowing the minister to be thrown into a position where so much evil was to
be foreboded, and nothing auspicious to be hoped."

Bantman Classic

Chp 13 page 151


I am not to sure what foreboded actually means, but Websters dictionary says it means to have a inward conviction.

  1. On dictionary.com it says this word means to foreshadow or predict.

  2. I've heard my mom use it as, "wow, those dark clouds look foreboding!" This makes me think that it means to suggest somethin that is to come. Dark clouds forebodes a storm.
