Richard: I need help thinking of a word.
Nic: Go ahead.
Richard: I'm looking for a word to replace "bring back" in the sentence: Richard is petitioning to bring back pterodactyls.
Nic: Revive... restore... resurrect?
Richard: The best I've found so far is "reinstate."
Nic: I like reinstate, it sounds dignified.
Richard: I think reinstate implies almost that pterodactyls were once holding some place in office.
Nic: Agreed. What's this for?
Richard: Updating my résumé.
