Definitions

1. Makes something fresh, cool, or revitalized again, often by adding new energy or material to it
2. Restores vigor or newness to a thing, bringing it back to a lively and pleasant condition
3. Gives renewed energy or a clean, invigorated quality to someone or something that had grown stale or tired

Etymology: "Refreshens" is simply the third-person singular present form of the verb "refreshen," so it describes someone or something that makes a thing fresh again: a shower refreshens a tired body, a breeze refreshens a stuffy room. The verb is built from the prefix "re-," meaning "again" or "back," attached to "freshen," which in turn comes from "fresh." Together they combine the sense of making something new once more.
