Root Explanation

Repackage → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "package" (from Old French *pacquet*, meaning a bundle or package). The word "repackage" means to package something again or to put it into a new package.

Memory Tip

Think of doing something 'again' ('re-') with a 'bundle' ('package') — that's why repackaging means putting something into a new bundle.
