Reconstruct is more like rebuilding an object from new parts. Restore is like taking a very old object and trying to make it appear new. Repair is use in fixing something that has been broken or damage, and making it work again. Mend can be used in two ways. The first is similar to repair and it involves fixing damage or broken objects. The second involves healing a person. EX: The doctor mended my leg.

These words all have a very similar meaning and are really interchangeable. They all are verbs that mean “make something good again that was damaged or worn out.” The choice of which word to use is really idiomatic. The best way to think about their use is to think about the kinds of nouns that would receive their action: Reconstruct - a building, a road (for example, after an earthquake) Restore - a painting, the paint on furniture or a car, damaged files on your computer Repair – the engine in your car, a machine that was broken (a washing machine), a musical instrument Mend – clothing that was torn, a heart that was broken due to a bad relationship
