Answer 3

This is one of many Latin words that were added into the English language, but were lost as Latin developed into modern Spanish. Spanish has lost all traces of "cras" (tomorrow), which is where "pro-cras-tin-atio" comes from (pro - ahead, for + cras - tomorrow).

You have "aplazar las cosas", and many other alternatives... with depend on the context, as James said.
