The word Presque has its origin in French. In French language Presque means 'almost'. Thus, it means approximately or roughly or about, nearly, just about, around, and more or less. Presque is used as an adverb. For example: Presque tout le monde est present. It translates as 'Almost everybody is present'. Thus, Presque defines or gives more information about the verb 'to be present'.

This word is also used in the names of places. Have you heard about Prsque Isle? Presque Isle means 'almost an island'. It is generally used for such places that are situated on a peninsula. Presque Rien means almost nothing. This is a movie directed Sebastien Lifshitz. It is a French film released in 2000. There is also a term 'Presque vu'. It translates as already seen. It is seen in people affected by epilepsy.
