Introduction to the verb estrapader
The English translation of the French verb “estrapader” is “to torture.” The infinitive form is pronounced as [es.tʁa.pa.de].
The word “estrapader” originates from the Latin word “extrapeditare,” which means “to torture someone by dislocating their joints.” In everyday French, however, it is rarely used in its literal sense, but rather as an idiomatic expression meaning “to make someone work excessively hard” or “to exhaust someone.”
