電視重播
把「再放一遍」放到電視上,就是重播。這也是這個字最常被聽到的地方,所以名詞 rerun 幾乎預設就是指節目。
noun · B1
A film or television programme that is being shown again, often weeks or years after it was first shown.
重播的節目
Think of rerun as feeding the same thing through a second time. The tape, the race, the test, the set of steps: none of it is changed, and none of it is . It simply starts at the beginning again, and you wait to see what comes out this time.
Wiktionary gives the formation directly: rerun is re- plus run. The prefix re- means again, and run already covers making something go through from start to finish, so the modern core needs no extra story.
Wiktionary 直接寫出這個字的組成:rerun 就是 re- 加 run。re- 是「再一次」,而 run 本身就有「讓一件事從頭跑到尾」的意思。所以現在的核心畫面不需要額外的故事,字面上就是「再跑一遍」。

再做一次;重跑一次
程式再跑一次
電腦裡的 run 就是「讓程式從頭跑到尾」,所以這個用法離字面最近:同一段程式,再跑一次。
