reinstate

reinstate: 1. 동사 (직장·직책 등에로) 복귀시키다
2. 동사 (원위치·상태로) 회복시키다 (=restore)

"Reinstate" is a verb that means to restore someone or something to a previous position, status, condition, or authority. When you reinstate something or someone, you are essentially putting them back in the same position or state they were in before a change or interruption occurred. It often implies a return to a previous state of functioning or a reestablishment of rights, privileges, or responsibilities that may have been temporarily suspended or revoked. For example, if an employee is temporarily suspended from their job but later allowed to return to work, they are being reinstated. Similarly, if a policy or rule that was temporarily suspended is put back into effect, it is reinstated.
