Freshly

Answer:

ANEW

Hint:

Think of how you might describe starting over or doing something again from the beginning, like a renewed effort.

Explanation:

"Freshly" hints at something done again in a new way, which is exactly what "anew" means. The word "anew" combines "a" (meaning "in a certain state") with "new," reinforcing the idea of starting fresh. It’s a straightforward definition where the clue and answer align directly without hidden wordplay.
