Introduction to the verb folioter
The English translation of the French verb folioter is “to paginate.” The infinitive form, folioter, is pronounced “foh-lee-oh-teh.”
Folioter is derived from the French word “folio,” meaning “page,” and the suffix “-oter,” which is used to indicate a repetitive or intensive action. It is primarily used in written French to refer to the act of numbering or arranging pages in a document or book.
In everyday French, folioter is often used in the Conditionnel Passé tense to express a hypothetical action that would have taken place in the past.
