reexpress
Put another way
To reexpress something is to express it again, usually in a different form or different words: Let me reexpress that more clearly.
In mathematics and science, reexpress often means to reformulate an equation or relationship in equivalent terms: We can reexpress the formula using polar coordinates.
Also spelled re-express.
