CW: Erroneous colon after "re"
RE "RE:"
Like "to" or "of", "re" is a two-letter #English preposition. The OED says it's from Latin, possibly via the legal term "in re" ("in the matter of").¹ It isn't shortened from "regarding".
Like emails, paper memos typically had a set of headings with colons:
FROM:
TO:
RE:
DATE:And #usage guides used to object to "re" being used within sentences—so I think most people's main encounter with it in formal use was in those headings.
[contd.]

🌸 A small shameless plug from your friendly neighbourhood language nerd.
I’m currently looking for new work, so if you, your organisation, or someone you know needs a human translator, teacher, tutor, or copywriter, I’d be very happy to talk. 💜
I work primarily into German and English, from source languages including:
🇩🇪 German
🇬🇧 English
🇫🇷 French
🇮🇹 Italian
🇪🇸 Spanish
🇳🇱 Dutch
…and several others, depending on the project.I also offer language teaching and tutoring, including preparation for language certificates and examinations. Whether you’re working towards TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge English, Goethe, telc, or another recognised language qualification, I can help you prepare systematically, with practice, feedback, exam strategies, and plenty of patient explanation when grammar decides to become unnecessarily dramatic. 📚💜
I also offer copywriting, editing and polishing.
And yes: an actual human does the work. No soulless AI sludge pretending to be a translation. Just experience, care, linguistic precision, and a slightly excessive love of words. 🥰
If you have work for me, please send me a message. And if you don't, sharing this post can help enormously.
Alternatively, if you'd simply like to support my work, you can find me on Ko-fi. Every little bit helps keep this stubborn little language goblin afloat. 🥹💜
