Root Explanation

Reboard → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "board" (from Old English "bord", meaning a plank or flat surface). The word "reboard" means to board again or to get back on a vehicle or platform after having disembarked.

Memory Tip

Think of getting on a 'board' ('bord') again — 're-' means again, so reboard means to board again.
