It can refer to the physical recovery of an object, such as finding a lost key, or the mental retrieval of information, like remembering a forgotten name. The concept implies a process of searching, recollection, or rediscovery.

In everyday language, jälleittäminen is commonly used when talking about misplaced personal belongings or forgotten memories. For example, one might say they are engaged in jälleittäminen when searching for their phone or trying to recall details of a past event.
