What does RESEAT mean in Scrabble?
verb
technical
To seat someone again, or to fit a new seat, seal, or surface into a mechanical part so that it closes properly.
Reseat has two common uses. With people, it means to show a diner, guest, or passenger to a different chair or table, or to help someone sit back down after they have stood up. With machinery, plumbers and mechanics reseat a valve or tap by grinding or replacing the part that the valve presses against, so that it closes without a drip or a leak. Furniture repair uses the same word for putting a new woven or upholstered seat into an old chair. The mechanical sense is the one most likely to appear on a repair invoice or a workshop manual.
How RESEAT is used
Used both in ordinary contexts, such as a restaurant reseating guests, and in technical plumbing or engineering writing about repairing a valve.
- The waiter had to reseat the party at a quieter table.
- A plumber can reseat a dripping tap instead of replacing the whole valve.
- The upholsterer agreed to reseat the old dining chairs in new fabric.
- Security asked him to reseat himself before the flight could depart.
- The mechanic reseated the valve so the engine stopped losing pressure.
