Root Explanation
Replanning → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "planning" (from the verb "plan", which originates from Old French *planer*, meaning to make a plan or design). The word "replanning" means to make a new plan or design again.
Memory Tip
Think of 'again' ('re-') when you are making a new 'plan' — that's what replanning means.
