覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 redesign は re-「再び」＋ design「設計する」で、-ed を付けた過去形・過去分詞が redesigned です。語末が有声音 /n/ なので -ed は /d/ と発音します。a redesigned app/chair/entrance のように、既存の見た目や構造を目的に合わせて作り直した物を表します。
Break redesigned into re-, meaning “again,” design, and the past-participle ending -ed. The base verb is redesign, “to design again or differently.” Since redesign ends in the voiced sound /n/, its -ed ending is pronounced /d/. In a redesigned app, chair, or entrance, an earlier version already existed, but someone deliberately changed its appearance, structure, or function. This distinguishes redesigned from newly designed: redesigned always points back to a previous design, while newly designed may describe something created for the first time.

redesigned の語源・成り立ち Etymology
redesignedはre-「再び」+ designから成り、designはフランス語・イタリア語を経てラテン語designare「印を付けて計画する」にさかのぼります。de-「はっきり」+ signare「印を付ける」なので、設計を引き直す感覚が「再設計された」です。関連語はdesignate、signatureです。
Redesigned is the past form and past participle of redesign, built in English from the prefix re-, “again,” and design. Design came through French and Italian from Latin designare, “to mark out, indicate, or plan,” based on signum, “mark or sign.” The ending -ed marks the completed action or its resulting state. The word therefore describes something that has been planned or shaped again after an earlier design.
