短释义：
The noun prophecy means a magical foreknowledge, although it can also be used in a playful way to describe an ordinary guess or prediction about the future. So you could say, “Her prophecy for the weather next week is incredibly depressing.” The word comes from the Greek prophetia — literally, “gift of interpreting the will of the gods”. The verb form is prophesy, or predict, and it’s spelled with an s instead of a c.
如果算命先生预言你一生将成为亿万富翁，你会非常兴奋。预言是一种预测，或者是对未来的神奇展望。
