dēnŭō, adv. [contr. from dē nŏvo, which never occurs; v. Ruhnk. Ter. And. prol. 26; Oud. App. M. 3, p. 225.; cf.: Fr. de nouveau ], anew, afresh, again (most freq. in Plaut. and Ter.; elsewh. rare; not in Caes. or the Aug. poets—for syn. cf.: iterum, rursus, ab integro).

Of the restoration of a thing which has been destroyed, = de integro, anew, afresh, ek kainês:

et nunc quid exspectat, Syre? an dum hinc denuo abeat, etc.,
