The word "retry" has its roots in Old French, where it was written as "reiter". This term was derived from the Latin words "re-" meaning "again" and "iter" meaning "journey" or "attempt". In English, the word "retry" has been in use since the 15th century and initially meant "to try again" or "to make another attempt". Over time, its meaning has expanded to include not just making another attempt, but also to start anew, redo something, or repeat a process after a failure or error. The word "retry" is commonly used in various contexts, including computing, sports, and everyday life, to indicate a renewed effort or attempt to succeed after a previous failure or setback.
