/rɪˌdʒenəˈreɪʃn//rɪˌdʒenəˈreɪʃn/

The word "regeneration" has its roots in the Latin words "regenerare," meaning "to bring again" and "generare," meaning "to generate" or "to produce." The Latin term "regeneratio" is derived from these roots and refers to the process of being born again or renewed. In the 15th century, the term "regeneration" was borrowed into Middle English from Old French, where it was spelled "rengeneracioun." Initially, it referred to spiritual rebirth or conversion, as in the Reformation's emphasis on individual renewal through faith. Over time, the term evolved to encompass broader concepts, such as physical recovery or development, and even scientific contexts like cellular renewal in biology. Today, "regeneration" encompasses a wide range of meanings, from spiritual transformation to tissue regeneration and beyond.
