recoupled

Paired up anew

Recoupled means paired again after a separation.

The term appears most often in discussions of relationships—someone who divorces and later enters a new partnership has recoupled: She recoupled within a year of her divorce.

In technical contexts, recoupled describes reconnecting components that were previously linked: The train cars were recoupled after inspection.
