The KJV renders 10 different Hebrew and Greek words as “again”
What it means
(adverbially) anew, i.e. (of place) back, (of time) once more, or (conjunctionally) furthermore or on the other hand
probably from the same as G3823 (πάλη) (through the idea of oscillatory repetition);
How the KJV renders it
again
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
“again”
also renders prostíthēmi (G4369), dís (G1364), deúteros (G1208), epistréphō (G1994), ánōthen (G509), ʼăchôrannîyth (H322), gam (H1571), ʻôwd (H5750), tinyânûwth (H8579)
