Root Explanation

Reroll → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "roll" (from Old English "rollian", meaning to turn over or rotate). The word "reroll" means to roll again or to turn over once more.

Memory Tip

Think of doing something 'again' ('re-') — like rolling a dice or a piece of paper — that's why reroll means to roll again.
