Morphology

premotion = motion (transparent) = pre + motion

The meaning is directly built from 'pre-' meaning 'before' and 'motion' meaning movement, yielding 'movement beforehand' or a prior initiating movement.

Etymology

Premotion is made from pre- meaning 'before' and motion meaning 'movement'. So a premotion is a movement or change that comes before something else and often starts or prepares that action.
