意味

Restoration; recovery; rehabilitation. Returning something to its original working state after damage or disruption.

A noun and suru-verb meaning to restore or repair infrastructure, services, or systems to their pre-disaster state. Distinct from 復興 (fukkou, reconstruction/revival), which implies building back better or revitalising a community. 復旧 focuses on returning to the previous condition — fixing what was broken. Very common in disaster recovery contexts: 復旧作業 (fukkyuu sagyou, restoration work), 復旧工事 (fukkyuu kouji, repair construction).

例文

1. 台風で止まった電車は午後に復旧した。
2. 道路の復旧工事が急ピッチで進められている。
3. システム障害からの復旧に数時間かかった。
