try again
Make another attempt
Try again is an instruction to make another attempt after failure or an unsatisfactory result.
It appears on screens when software rejects input, in games after losing a life, and from teachers encouraging struggling students.
The phrase can sound supportive or dismissive depending on tone: Wrong password—try again versus Don't give up, try again.
