rerooting
Establishing new foundations
Rerooting is the process of establishing new roots, whether literal or figurative.
A transplanted tree reroots in new soil.
A person reroots after relocating: After years abroad, she struggled with rerooting in her hometown.
In technology, rerooting can mean redirecting a system's base path or, in phylogenetics, changing where an evolutionary tree is anchored.
