Etymology

The word 'forthcome' is a combination of 'forth' and 'come', with 'forth' meaning 'forward in time.' It originated in Middle English and has been used in various forms to indicate something that is expected or awaited in the future. Over time, 'forthcome' has become less common in modern English usage, with 'come forth' and 'emerge' being more widely used alternatives.
