- 1翻新、大改版（網站、店面、形象常用）
To revamp something is to change it so that it works better and looks more modern. You might revamp a shop, a website, a menu, or a plan. It is not a tiny fix; it is a fresh look, though you usually keep the same basic thing rather than throwing it away and starting from nothing. You can also use it as a noun: “The website needs a revamp.” It is at home in business talk and magazines — not stiff, not street slang. The part is an old word meaning to patch or repair, like the front of a shoe. Though actually, that has nothing to do with vampires; they only share a spelling, and that mix-up makes students smile.
From the word’s history
From re- + vamp 'to patch, repair, refurbish'.
re-（重新）加 vamp「修補、翻新」。
組成re- (again) + vamp (to patch, repair, or refurbish). The noun comes from the verb.
