The Hebrew root ק.ד.מ[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/התקדמות-#.m4a” /] means early/first/before. It’s the root of the word !קדימה[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/התקדמות-#.m4a” /] – let’s go!, literally, ahead!

It’s also the root of להתקדם[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/התקדמות-#.m4a” /] – to advance or to make progress. Thus advancement or progress are התקדמות[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/התקדמות-#.m4a” /].

For example:
