1. 1重生(遊戲用語;玩家也直接說 respawn)

    In a computer game, if a character respawns, they appear again after they have been killed — usually at a spawn point, often after a short wait. Players also say a monster respawns, meaning the game puts it back in the world. You can respawn (your character does it) or be respawned (the game does it to you). As a noun, a respawn is that coming-back itself. It is gamer English, not classroom English, though plenty of students know it before they meet it in a book. People now stretch it as a joke outside games — I'll respawn after a nap — but its home is still play. Though actually, spawn already meant “to be born / to bring forth,” including fish laying eggs; games borrowed that “appear in the world” picture and added re- for “again.”

組成From re- (“again”) + spawn (“to appear in the game world”; older English: to bring forth, as fish lay eggs).
