Morphology
reactivation = reactivate (semi-transparent) = re + activ + ation
The noun is a regular and fully predictable -ion formation from the verb 'reactivate'.
Etymology
Reactivation comes from the parts re- meaning 'again' and activate meaning 'make active', the same root as active and action. A helpful image is a memory as a light that is turned on again, so reactivation means old memories or brain patterns becoming active once more.
