Recupereert

Recupereert is the third-person singular present tense form of the Dutch verb recupereren. The verb means to recuperate or to recover health or strength after illness or exertion; it can also refer to recovering or regaining something that was lost, such as time, energy, or data. In medical contexts, recupereert indicates a person or animal recovering from illness or surgery; in technical contexts it can describe the process of recovering data or resources.

Etymology: The verb recupereren is borrowed from French récupérer, via Dutch, and adopted into Dutch with a spelling that reflects Dutch phonology. The form recupereert follows the standard Dutch pattern for -eren verbs in the present tense.

Usage notes: Recupereert is relatively formal and more common in written or technical language than in casual speech, where synonyms such as herstellen, opknappen, or bijkomen are often preferred. The term can apply to physical recovery, mental recuperation, or the act of restoring data or assets.

Example sentences: Hij recupereert snel van zijn operatie. De patiënt recupereert goed en kan binnenkort naar huis. De software recupereert de gegevens na de crash. De ploeg recupereert delen van de verloren voorraad.
