What retry means

Where the word comes from

From the prefix "re-" (again, back) combined with "try," which comes from Old French "trier," possibly from a Vulgar Latin root meaning to pick or sort out. The compound "retry" emerged in English in the late 19th century as a natural formation meaning to attempt something again.
