Etymology of REDOUBLE

The word "redouble" originated from the combination of two Latin roots: "re-" and "duplus".

The prefix "re-" means "again" or "back", indicating repetition or intensification of an action. It often denotes doing something again or going back to a previous state.

The Latin root "duplus" means "double" or "twofold". It is derived from the word "duplus" in Latin, which is a combination of "duo" meaning "two" and "-plus" meaning "fold".

Therefore, the word "redouble" combines the prefix "re-" indicating repetition or intensification, with the Latin root "duplus" meaning "double", resulting in the sense of doubling or increasing.
