Hi again!
Why revived incorret

Hi,

Replace simply means to put another part in the place of the old/broken part. Revive literally means bring back to life. You can revive someone who is apparently drowned by breathing into their mouth. You can also revive old songs/plays/shows by performing/playing them again.

hi Alain

I think it is his mouth .

I revive your answers instantly like flowers in water, restore the dead questions to be seen again, overtake what they were retaken, and ponder about what they are irreplaceable.
