verb

to remarry; to enter a second marriage

informal

A colloquial term for remarriage. Historically often applied specifically to women remarrying (再嫁), but now used generally for any second marriage regardless of gender. The term carries an informal, sometimes blunt or bluntly descriptive tone compared to the neutral 再婚. Can also function as a noun meaning 'a second marriage' or 'a remarried person' in casual speech.
