What does REDON mean in Scrabble?
verb
To put a piece of clothing, armour or equipment back on after having taken it off.
Writers reach for the verb redon whenever a character needs to dress again quickly, whether an actor changing costume between scenes, a swimmer stepping out of the water, or a soldier called back to duty. The word simply attaches the idea of repetition to the ordinary verb don, giving a single term for an action that would otherwise need a short phrase to describe. It shows up mostly in narrative writing rather than everyday conversation, where people are more likely to just say put back on.
