Verb

unlose (third-person singular simple present unloses, present participle unlosing, simple past and past participle unlost)

  1. (transitive, rare) To recover (something lost); to find again.
    • 2008, Robert Kelly, The Book from the Sky, page 199:
      Do words make the event realer? Do words bring back the lost moment, and hold it again, and by avowing its loss, right here, with her, the one from whom the event was lost, he, they, words, could unlose it, enter the moment as if it were still to be, and now actually is?
