Word origin
The term 'relearned' is formed by adding the prefix 're-' to the verb 'learn'. The prefix 're-' comes from Latin, meaning 'again' or 'back', which indicates repetition or returning to a previous state. The word 'learn' goes back to the Old English 'leornian', which means to acquire knowledge or skill. This term has been used in various forms throughout the history of the English language, reflecting the progress of learning and education. Over time, as educational approaches evolved, so did the need for terms that articulate the process of acquiring knowledge after a lapse, leading to the natural incorporation of 'relearn' into common usage.
