redesign
UK: ˌriːdɪˈzaɪn | US: ˌriːdɪˈzaɪn
vt. to design again or differently
n. a new or modified design
The word "redesign" combines the prefix "re-" (from Latin, meaning "again") with the root "design" (from Latin "designare," meaning "to mark out, plan"). The prefix "re-" implies repetition or alteration, while "design" retains its core meaning of planning or creating. Together, they logically form a term for revising or recreating a design. This construction reflects a common pattern in English where Latin-derived prefixes attach to verbs or nouns to indicate repetition or change.
