Morphology
reviviscence = re + viv + iscence
The word ultimately contains the meaning of 'live again,' but the form is a learned Latinate borrowing whose internal structure is not transparent to an average B1 learner.
Etymology
The word reviviscence comes from the Latin parts re- 'again' and viv- 'live', the same root found in revive. So, reviviscence means a 'coming back to life' or the return of energy, activity, or awareness.
