Etymology: "Recountings" is simply the plural of "recounting," the noun form of "recount." That verb is built from the prefix "re-" meaning "again" and "count" in its older sense of telling or relating, so a recounting is a telling given once more. The plural adds the idea of many such retellings, each one a separate act of going back over the same events.
Synonyms: narratives, accounts, stories, tales, reports
Antonyms: silence, omissions, neglect, disregard, forgetting
