English term or phrase: to repurpose
Hello!
could you please help me find the best translation for this term?
it seems many translations can be found in French.
In the context where it's used, it refers to the recreation of a model for different use(s), i.e. print or digital output.
I found the following translations:
- réorganiser
- revisiter
- réorienter
- réaffecter

Your help would be very much appreciated
thank you!
