# Reanalysis

Reanalysis is a new analysis of something. It may refer to:

* Reanalysis (linguistics) or folk etymology, change in a word or phrase resulting from the replacement of an unfamiliar form by a more familiar one
   * Rebracketing, a process where a word originally derived from one source is broken down into a different set of factors
   * Back-formation, a process of creating a new word by removing actual or supposed affixes
* New statistical analysis of a data set that has already been analyzed
* A repeat analysis, for example in chemistry
