To do something again, usually because you want to improve it or fix a mistake.

Usage & Nuances

'Redo' is a regular verb (redo/redid/redone). Often used with tasks, assignments, or digital actions ('redo an assignment', 'redo a room', 'undo/redo' in software). Less formal than 'rework', and not interchangeable with 'repeat' (which means to do the same thing again, not correct or improve).
