Réanalysé

Réanalysé is the masculine singular past participle of the French verb réanalyser, meaning “reanalyzed.” As an adjective, it describes something that has been subjected to a new analysis or reexamination. The feminine form is réanalysée, the plural réanalysés (masc) and réanalysées (fem). In everyday French, réanalysé is used to describe data, texts, or results that were reexamined.

The prefix ré- indicates repetition or revision, and analyser comes from the French verb analyse, which conveys the act of breaking something into parts for study. The term is common in scientific and scholarly writing, where the results of an initial analysis are revisited with new methods or information.

In linguistics, réanalyse denotes a process by which the perceived structure of a form is reinterpreted as belonging to a different morphological or syntactic category. This mechanism, known as reanalysis in English, can contribute to language change, affecting how morphemes or words are segmented and understood over time. It is used to describe historical shifts in the interpretation of forms rather than a single event.

In meteorology and climatology, réanalyse (often used as a noun) refers to a reanalysis dataset that combines historical observations with numerical weather models to produce coherent, long-term records. Such datasets are used for research, model evaluation, and retrospective weather analysis. The adjective réanalysé can describe results or data that have undergone this reprocessing.

Overall, réanalysé is a versatile term across domains, signaling that something has been reexamined or reprocessed through a fresh analysis.
