Root Explanation

Reaccelerated → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "accelerare" (from Latin, meaning to hasten or speed up). The word means to speed up again or to increase speed once more.

Memory Tip

Think of 'again' ('re-') and 'speeding up' ('accelerare') — that's why reaccelerated means to speed up again.
