Morphology

regrade = grade (transparent) = re + grade

The prefix 're-' adds the standard meaning 'again' to the verb 'grade', so the sense 'grade again' is directly predictable.

Etymology

Regrade comes from the parts re- ('again') and grade ('mark' or 'level'), so to regrade is to give something a new mark after checking it again.
