A priori is a Latin expression meaning “from what comes before.” In medieval Scholasticism it meant “deductive, beginning from causes or principles,” but since Kant it has meant “prior to experience, innate, inborn, or transcendental.”
In common contemporary philosophical usage, a priori often means “self-evident matters requiring no deductive proof.”

アプリオリとは、「より先のものから」を意味するラテン語表現。中世スコラ学においては「原因・原理から始める演繹的な」という意味で用いられていたが、カント以降は「経験に先立つ先天的・生得的・先験的な」という意味で用いられるようになった。
哲学における今日的な一般的用法としては、アプリオリとは、「演繹的証明の必要のない自明的な事柄」という意味で使われることが多い。
