Etymology: "Reincarnates" is the third-person singular form of "reincarnate," which combines the prefix re-, from Latin re- meaning "again" or "back," with "incarnate." Incarnate comes from Late Latin "incarnare," "to make flesh," formed from in- and "caro," meaning flesh, so to reincarnate is to take on flesh once more.
