readapts

Conforms once more

Readapts means adapts again or anew.

Something that readapts adjusts to changed circumstances after having adapted before: The species readapts to its original habitat after the drought ends.

A person readapts when returning to familiar conditions after time away: She readapts quickly to civilian life after each deployment.
