Morphology

reanalyze = analyze (transparent) = re + analyze

The prefix 're-' regularly means 'again', so 'reanalyze' is straightforwardly understood as 'analyze again'.

Etymology

The word reanalyze starts with re- meaning 'again' and the rest is analyze, from a root meaning 'break into parts' that you see in analysis. So to reanalyze is to 'analyze again', often using new information or methods to find a better result.
