把東西排回正確的位置
這一族是最貼近畫面的用法:東西真的看得見、摸得到,而且確實有一個「對的位置」。
noun · C1
The act of moving the parts of something back into the correct position in relation to each other, or the result of doing this.
校正對位
Think of things that are meant to sit on one line: the bends of a road, the wheels of a car, the teeth in a jaw. Something has drifted out of line, so the whole set is moved until each part sits right against the others again. That picture of putting things back on their line is a useful way to hold every use of realignment.
Wiktionary analyses the word as re- plus alignment, that is, alignment done over again. The modern uses all keep that shape: something was already lined up once, and now it is lined up differently.
Wiktionary 把這個字拆成 re-(再一次)加 alignment(排成一線),也就是「再對一次線」。今天的各種用法都還留著這個形狀:本來已經排過一次,現在重新排。

把安排和陣營重新排過
同樣是「重新排一次」,但排的東西不再是零件,而是部門、職責,或是人站的位置;而且這裡通常沒有唯一正確的線,只有換過的新排法。
