In reicio and often in later Latin re is found before vowels and h; e. g. reaedifico, reexinanio, reinvito, etc. Assimilation of the d before consonants produced the forms relligio, relliquiae, reccido; and the suppression of the d may account for the frequent lengthening of the e by poets in rēduco, rēlatum.
