revisal

/ɹᵻvˈaɪzəl/ noun

The act of revising; a revision.

Word Origin Revisal comes from 'revise', which combines Latin 're-' (again) and 'videre' (to see) — literally 'to see again, to look back at'. A revisal is the act of revising, of looking over something again to improve it. The root 'videre' is everywhere: vision, visible, visit, video, and even advice (from 'ad' + 'visum', to see towards).

noun The act of revising; a revision. countable
