WHAT DOES APRIORITY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

A priori and a posteriori

The terms a priori and a posteriori are used in philosophy to distinguish two types of knowledge, justification, or argument: ▪ A priori knowledge or justification is independent of experience. Galen Strawson has stated that an a priori argument is one in which "you can see that it is true just lying on your couch". You don't have to get up off your couch and go outside and examine the way things are in the physical world. You don't have to do any science." ▪ A posteriori knowledge or justification is dependent on experience or empirical evidence. There are many points of view on these two types of knowledge, and their relationship is one of the oldest problems in modern philosophy. The terms a priori and a posteriori are primarily used as adjectives to modify the noun "knowledge", or taken to be compound nouns that refer to types of knowledge. However, "a priori" is sometimes used as an adjective to modify other nouns, such as "truth". Additionally, philosophers often modify this use.
