Recovering your health or strength after being sick or tired, or recovering something you've lost.
From Latin 'recuperare' (to recover, get back); originally meant to regain something physically, then evolved to mean healing physically or mentally.
The word literally means 'getting back' (from Latin 're-' and 'cupere')—when you recuperate, you're recovering not just health but your former self.
