Root Explanation

Restaging → It is formed from "re-" (meaning again) and "stage" (from Old French *estage*, meaning a stage or platform). The word "restaging" means to set or present something again on a stage or platform.

Memory Tip

Think of doing something 'again' ('re-') on a 'stage' — that's why restaging means to present it again.
