The word "redial" is a combination of two words, "re-" and "dial". The prefix "re-" in English denotes repetition or indicating that an action is being done again. The word "dial" originates from the Latin word "dialis" meaning "pertaining to a day" or "daily". It is related to the Latin word "dies", which means "day".
"Dial" initially referred to the instrument used for marking time by the movement of a pointer or hands, such as a sundial. In the telecommunication context, it came to represent the act of entering a telephone number using a rotary dial or buttons to establish a connection.
"Redial" specifically indicates the act of dialing a telephone number again or repeatedly, thus emphasizing the repetition or redoing of the dialing action.
