Antes de tiempo

[irmamar]

How could I say "antes de tiempo" in English? For instance, I want to say:

En la carta se despide antes de tiempo.

In the letter, he says good bye ... (he hasn't arrived to the end of the letter yet and says good bye)

Thanks

That word can be use only to say antes de tiempo, or it has some another meanings.

I couldn't think about it.
I couldn't think of it.
I couldn't remember it.
I couldn't come up with it.

You can say "prematuramente", as well.

Esta es la sala donde están los niños nacidos prematuramente (los niños prematuros).
This is the ward where the children born prematurely are.

I guess there aren't many mistakes
Or maybe I'm wrong

Let's a native give his/her opinion

Verbs of remembering and forgetting used to take a genitive object (thus of) in English, and used to in German as well. 'Ich denke Dein', Vergissmeinnicht (nomeolvides), etc.

Wouldn't you say that the premature children are born prematurely?

We say "niños prematuros", as well, but I can add that "son los nacidos prematuramente"
