覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
recover と近い語ですが、recuperate は特に「病気・疲労・手術のあと、休んで体力を取り戻す」場面で覚えると定着しやすいです。re- を含む語は「元に戻る」をまず連想すると意味を取りやすく、fully recuperated, recuperated after surgery などの形で見ると記憶に残ります。日常会話の recover よりやや硬めで、単に気分がよくなるより「消耗した身体がしっかり回復した」ニュアンスが強い語です。
Think of recuperate as a more formal cousin of recover. It is often used for health, energy, or strength after illness, exhaustion, or surgery, so the context helps fix it in memory. Phrases like fully recuperated or recuperated after surgery are strong memory hooks.
例文

recuperated の語源・成り立ち Etymology
recuperate の過去分詞形で、ラテン語 recuperare「取り戻す・回復する」に由来します。re-「再び」+ capere 系の「取る・つかむ」が背景にあり、「失った力をもう一度つかみ直す」感覚から「回復した」という意味になります。関連語は recover、receive です。
`Recuperated` is the past participle of `recuperate`, which comes from Latin `recuperare`, meaning "to recover" or "get back." It contains `re-` "again" and a root linked to taking or gaining back what was lost. The meaning shifted from getting something back in general to regaining health, strength, or energy. Related English words include `recover` and `receive`.
