Talk:tijdig

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

‘Tijdig’ literally means timely or on time. Hence: ‘vroegtijdig’ or ‘voortijdig’ (premature/untimely), ‘laattijdig’ (belated). Swift, I should translate as ‘gezwind’ or ‘vlug’. ‘Tijdelijk’, by contrast, means ‘temporary’. In any case, ‘tijdig’ does not mean ‘quick’ or ‘swift’. — This unsigned comment was added by 188.192.8.129 (talk).
