The answer
RERUN
What rerun means
A television program or movie that is broadcast again after its original showing, or to show something again.
Where the word comes from
Rerun is a modern compound formed in the 20th century from the prefix "re-" (meaning "again") plus "run." The verb "run" comes from Old Norse "rinna" and Old English "rinnan," both meaning to move quickly. The "re-" prefix traces back through Middle English and Old French to Latin "re-," denoting repetition or return. Rerun emerged as films and television broadcasts began being shown again, creating the need for a concise term.
