Learners sometimes say *"write again"* when they mean *"rewrite"*. *"Write again"* can mean to send another message at a later time, while *"rewrite"* means to produce a new, changed version of the same text. Some also confuse *"rewrite"* with *"re-read"* and say *"I will rewrite this"* when they only mean they will read it again.
