Word origin
The word 'recommencing' is derived from the combination of the prefix 're-' and the verb 'commence', which originates from the Latin 'cominitiare'. The prefix ‘re-’ indicates repetition, while 'commence' means to start or begin. Over time, the word has evolved through different forms in the English language, reflecting various uses in academic, legal, and everyday contexts. The 19th century saw increased use of 'recommence' as more structured activities and organizations took shape, necessitating a clear language to describe the resumption of actions after breaks or interruptions. Today, 'recommencing' is widely used in both formal and informal settings, especially in terms of scheduling and procedural descriptions.
