Morphology

regram = gram (semi-transparent) = re + gram

Formed by productive prefix 're-' + clipped slang 'gram' (Instagram post); meaning is recoverable if the learner recognises the informal 'gram' sense but may be confused by the unrelated unit 'gram'.

Etymology

Regram comes from the parts re- 'again' and the gram in Instagram. So to regram something is to share it again on Instagram, like using 'repost' for a photo or video.
