Douglas Harper's Etymology Dictionary
Usage examples of "re-appear".
I never heard what became of the girls, but Pocchini will re-appear on the scene in due course.
Harry drank the half-carafe of wine Valentin had brought, and when - three-quarters of an hour later - the man re-appeared with coffee and Calvados, he told him to leave the bottle.
He lay down, sprang to his feet, hid in the corner of a doorway, then made a bound, disappeared, re-appeared, scampered away, returned, replied to the grape-shot with his thumb at his nose, and, all the while, went on pillaging the cartouches, emptying the cartridge-boxes, and filling his basket.
But the memories that re-appeared were entirely faulty so that many aged folk ended their lives thinking they were chickens or trees or Bruce Springsteen (apart from Bruce Springsteen himself who thought he was Dag Hammersholt, a secretary general of the UN in the 1950s).
