  • 再生 = さいせい resucitation, rebirth; also playback or reproduction (music, video, etc). Generally just making something come back again, literally and figuratively, at least that’s how I understand it. The context for this one was to resurrect someone, to make someone come back from the dead → 再生させる。
  • 行方 = ゆくえ whereabouts, destination, where one is headed. Apparently also an outcome or course of events.

I really like vocabulary with 再 , it’s so easy to understand. It’s basically ‘second kanji + again’, so far at least, so every new word I come accross with this kanji is really easy to infer. I also thought about all the words with 込む and how they gave me a lot of trouble at first, and now somehow I developed a feel for those compound words that contain it and can often (though not always) tell the difference with their non-込む counterparts. However if you ask me to explain what 込む means I literally can’t tell, but somehow understand it without translating. Crazy.
