Formed by adding the productive adjective-forming suffix '-ful' to the noun 'forethought', yielding 'full of forethought' which is directly inferable.
Etymology
The word forethoughtful comes from fore- meaning 'before' and thought meaning 'thinking', like in before or forecast. So, to be forethoughtful is to think ahead and make careful plans for the future.
