What does REBORN mean in Scrabble?
adjective
Born again, or brought back into existence, activity, or belief after being lost, ended, or abandoned.
Reborn describes a person, feeling, place, or institution that returns to life or strength after having seemed finished, and the word carries a stronger sense of renewal than simple repetition. In religious language a believer is described as reborn after a conversion, while writers just as often call a neighborhood, a career, or an old fashion reborn once it revives after decline. Unlike remade or restored, reborn keeps the sense that the original thing had truly ended, or nearly so, before the new beginning. It is used mainly as an adjective, following a form of the verb be or standing before a noun.
