redone

Redone is the past participle form of the verb redo, meaning to do something again. When used as an adjective, redone describes something that has been completed after a previous version or attempt.

Etymology and grammar: Redo is formed from the prefix re- plus do. The past tense is redid, while the past participle is redone. In perfect tenses you say “has redone,” “have redone,” or “had redone.”

Usage notes: Redone is common in contexts involving renovations, repairs, or revisions. It can describe physical objects (a redone kitchen), documents (a redone report), or processes (a redone procedure). More formal or general terms include renovated, revised, or revamped, depending on emphasis and context.

Examples: The contractors have redone the lobby after the redesign. The project was redone to address safety concerns. The redone kitchen features new appliances and an improved layout. In speech or writing, redone emphasizes that the item has been done again, rather than simply improved, and is often used alongside nouns that indicate the subject has undergone a second creation or modification.
