覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
rearrange の過去形・過去分詞で、語末の e を落として -ed を付け、rearrange → rearranged となります。re-「再び」+ arrange「整える」なので、元の位置や順序を別の形に整え直す語です。rearranged the books、the schedule was rearranged の形で覚えましょう。
Rearranged is the past tense and past participle of rearrange. Its structure shows the meaning clearly: re- means “again,” and arrange means “put in order.” For the spelling, the final silent e of rearrange is replaced when -ed is added, producing rearranged. Imagine books moved into a new order on a shelf, chairs placed differently, or a schedule altered for the team. Common patterns are “rearranged the books” and “was rearranged,” depending on whether the subject made or received the change.

rearranged の語源・成り立ち Etymology
「re-(再び)」と古仏語経由の「arrange」が結合し、後者はラテン語ad-とゲルマン語の「列」を語根とする。整える意味に再接頭辞re-が加わるため、順序をもう一度組み直す意味が直感的に理解できる。関連語にrangeやarrangementがある。
Rearranged is formed from rearrange plus the past-tense and participial ending -ed. Rearrange combines re-, “again” or “anew,” with arrange. Arrange entered English through French and is related to range, historically referring to a row or ordered line; its more distant formation combines a prefix derived from Latin ad- with a Germanic word for a row. Thus, rearrange literally suggests ordering anew.
