'four/fourth/forthsight' for 'foresight'

Foursight is pretty opaque, fourthsight could be a double dose of second sight I suppose, but stepping forward in time and perhaps guided equally by the word forth-right, forthsight is the more convincing of the three.

It’s a forthsight into the future…I pray that you have the gift of prophecy, you never know!

I thought the same thing you did but I had the forthsight of calling the restaurants before I purchased the Gift certificates.

She is an extremly innovative and informative agent who has the forthsight and understanding of the real estate market.
