reclipping
Securing once more
Reclipping is the act of clipping something again.
You might reclip a hedge that's grown back, reclip a coupon that came unattached, or reclip papers that have scattered: I had to reclip all the documents after dropping the folder.
The word appears wherever clip does—from hair to video footage to fasteners.
