もう一いち度ど
もう一度 is the common, neutral way to say 'once more' or 'again'. 重ねて is more formal and often used in written apologies or requests.
再さい度ど
再度 is also formal and means 'again' or 'a second time', but 重ねて carries a stronger nuance of repetition or piling up, and is more common in set phrases like apologies.

Etymology

Derived from the verb 重ねる (to pile up, to repeat) in its て-form, used adverbially. The kanji 重 means 'heavy' or 'pile up', reflecting the sense of doing something again or repeatedly.
