Reading, then seeing it translated by Kindles again (2-7)

I believe the answer is:

re-ignites

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'kindles again' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'reading then seeing it translated' is the wordplay.
'reading' becomes 'r' (one of the traditional three R's of education).
'then' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'translated' indicates an anagram.
'seeing'+'it'='seeingit'
'seeingit' anagrammed gives 'eignites'.
'r'+'eignites'='RE-IGNITES'

'by' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for re-ignites that I've seen is " Rekindles".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
