Introduction to the verb recorriger
The English translation of the French verb recorriger is to correct again or to re-correct. It is pronounced “ruh-kohr-ree-zhay”.
Recorriger is derived from the French prefix “re-” meaning “again” and the verb “corriger” meaning “to correct”. It is most often used in everyday French in the Plus-que-parfait tense, which corresponds to the past perfect tense in English.
The Plus-que-parfait tense is used to talk about an action that occurred before another action in the past. In this tense, recorriger is used to express that something had been corrected before another past action took place.

- Elle avait recorrigé ses devoirs quand elle a réalisé qu’elle avait encore fait des erreurs. (She had re-corrected her homework when she realized she had made mistakes again.)
