Etymology

The word "repaint" combines the prefix "re-" (from Latin, meaning "again") with the verb "paint" (from Old French "peintier," meaning "to decorate with color"). The prefix "re-" implies repetition, while "paint" retains its core meaning of applying color. This logical pairing reflects the action of painting something anew, whether physically or digitally.
