I'm wondering

translate(): "preconcat the current matrix with the specified translation" -- what does this mean?

I can't find a good definition of "preconcat" anywhere on the internet! The only place I can find it is in the Android Source - I'm starting to wonder if they made it up? :)

I'm familiar with "concat" or concatenate, which is to append to, so what is a pre-concat?
