Reread and amend (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

revise

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

This might be a double definition.

'reread' is the first definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'amend' is the second definition.
(I know that amend is a more specific form of the action revise)

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for revise that I've seen before include "Memorise" , "Prepare for exam" , "Go over work again as for exam" , "Amend; cram" , "Go over study material again" .)
