Explanation: This appears to be a compound word or a concatenation of two distinct words: the perfect passive infinitive of the verb προασφαλίζω (proasphalizō) and the preposition πρός (pros). The verb part, προασφαλίζω, means 'to secure beforehand' or 'to make safe beforehand'. In its perfect passive infinitive form, it means 'to have been secured beforehand' or 'to have been made safe beforehand'. The preposition πρός means 'to', 'toward', 'with', or 'against', depending on the case of the noun it governs. The combination suggests an action of being secured or made safe in relation to something else.
