What it means: To do something again.

In a sentence: If you make a mistake, you can redo the drawing.

The part people get wrong

Often misspelled as re-do or redue.

Same family: did, done, doing, undo, overdo. If you can spell one, the shared part carries to the others.

Where it comes from: “Redo” is formed from the prefix “re-,” meaning “again,” and the verb “do.” English uses “re-” in many words like “rewrite,” “rebuild,” and “replay” to show repeating an action.
