/ˌpriˈɛmptɪv/ – adjective
Definition: thuộc quyền ưu tiên mua trước, mua được nhờ quyền ưu tiên.
A more thorough explanation: “Pre-emptive” refers to an action or measure taken to prevent something undesirable from happening or to secure a particular outcome before a potential issue arises. In a legal context, a pre-emptive action may involve taking steps to address a possible legal claim or dispute before it escalates into a formal legal proceeding.
Example: The company took pre-emptive action by filing a lawsuit to protect its intellectual property rights before any potential infringement occurred.
