The new Sutta Central translations have translated the Pali word "abhinibbatti" as "reincarnation", as follows:
> *And what is rebirth? Katamā ca, bhikkhave, jāti?*
>
> *The rebirth, inception, conception, **reincarnation**, manifestation of the aggregates, and acquisition of the sense fields of the various
> sentient beings in the various orders of sentient beings.*
>
> *Yā tesaṃ tesaṃ sattānaṃ tamhi tamhi sattanikāye jāti sañjāti okkanti **abhinibbatti** khandhānaṃ pātubhāvo āyatanānaṃ paṭilābho.*
>
>*SN 12.2*
What evidence is there in the Pali suttas that the word "abhinibbatti" means "reincarnation"?
