build something again after damage

To build or make something again after it has been broken, damaged, or destroyed.

用法パターン: to reconstruct [something]
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes use *reconstruct* when *repair* is more natural for small things (e.g., saying "reconstruct my phone" instead of "repair my phone"). *Reconstruct* is usually for something large or seriously damaged, such as a building, road, or town. Learners may also say "reconstruct again", which is redundant because *re-* already means "again".
類義語
rebuild (Very close in meaning; often the most natural everyday choice for buildings and structures.) | restore (Emphasizes bringing something back to an earlier state or appearance, sometimes with historical or artistic care.)
対義語
demolish (Means to knock down or destroy a structure, the opposite process of building it again.)

recreate or infer something from evidence

To understand and show how something in the past happened by using signs, facts, or information.

用法パターン: to reconstruct [an event/situation] from [evidence/information]
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes confuse *reconstruct* with *remember*. *Reconstruct* is not just thinking back; it is building an understanding from outside information or evidence. They may also say *reconstruct about* something (e.g., "reconstruct about the accident"); the correct pattern is usually *reconstruct the accident* or *reconstruct what happened*.
類義語
recreate (Focuses on making a version or model of something; does not always emphasize using evidence.) | piece together (More informal phrasal verb; stresses slowly forming a picture from small bits of information.)
対義語
distort (Means to change or present events or facts in a false or misleading way, the opposite of carefully reconstructing them.)
コロケーション
reconstruct the crime |reconstruct events |reconstruct the timeline |reconstruct the scene |reconstruct the past |reconstruct the data

surgically rebuild body tissue

In medical work, to build or shape a body part again with surgery.

用法パターン: to reconstruct [a body part]
よくある間違い:
Learners may not realize that *reconstruct* is the more natural technical verb in medical and surgical contexts, and might overuse *fix* or *repair* instead. In formal medical English, phrases like "reconstruct the ligament" or "breast reconstruction" are preferred.
類義語
repair (More general and less technical; does not specifically express surgical rebuilding of body structures.) | rebuild (Used metaphorically in medicine; *reconstruct* is the standard technical term.)
対義語
remove (In surgery, removing a body part (e.g., amputation, mastectomy) is the opposite of reconstructing or replacing it.)
コロケーション
reconstruct a knee |reconstruct a breast |reconstruct the jaw |reconstruct the ligament |reconstruct facial features |reconstruct damaged tissue
テーマ
medicine |health |surgery |body
例文
  • Surgeons were able to reconstruct his knee using a tendon from his other leg.
