rediscussed
Talked over twice
Rediscussed means discussed again, returning to a topic that was addressed previously.
The prefix signals repetition—something that warranted further conversation: The committee rediscussed the budget after new figures came in.
Often implies the first discussion was inconclusive or that circumstances have changed.
