preontological understanding of Being

is the distorted or buried grasp of the a priori conditions that make possible particular modes of Being by underpinning Dasein’s as-structure.

As we have seen, it is an essential characteristic of Dasein that, in its ordinary ways of engaging with other entities, it operates with a preontological understanding of Being, that is, with a distorted or buried grasp of the a priori conditions that, by underpinning the taking-as structure, make possible particular modes of Being.
