reclarify
Make clear again
To reclarify is to clarify again—to make something clear a second time after initial explanation proved insufficient or after confusion arose: Let me reclarify my position on this issue.
The word often signals that a previous attempt at clarity failed or that circumstances have changed enough to warrant fresh explanation.
