My German is a little rusty, but I feel like the counterpart WIÐ has disappeared from contemporary German. It's interesting that German and English diverged that way.

The modern German cognates are wider (against) and wieder (again, back), the common ancestor word being withra. The English Wiktionary is a great etymological dictionary.

  I would say gegen for against. But yeah noch mal wieder is definitely in my lexicon.
