Trước khi
『に先立って』có nghĩa là "trước khi" giống『の前に』, song chủ yếu được dùng để diễn tả ý: trước một dịp, sự kiện (N) quan trọng hoặc đặc biệt, thì làm một việc gì đó cần thiết để chuẩn bị. Không dùng cấu trúc này để nói về những việc nhỏ nhặt, diễn ra hằng ngày như đi học, đi làm...
『に先立ち』là hình thức trang trọng hơn của『に先立って』.
