L’impératif Présent (Imperative Present) Tense Conjugation of the French Verb déficeler
Introduction to the verb déficeler
The English translation of the French verb déficeler is “to untie” or “to unbind.” It is pronounced as “deh-fee-seh-lay.”
Déficeler comes from the combination of the prefix “dé-” which means “un-” and the verb “ficeler” which means “to tie” or “to bind.” It is most often used in everyday French to talk about untying or unbinding something physically or metaphorically.
In the l’impératif présent tense, déficeler is used to give commands or instructions. Here are three examples of its usage in this tense with their English translations:
- Déficelle la corde avant de l’utiliser. (Untie the rope before using it.)
- Ne déficelles pas tes résolutions si facilement. (Don’t give up your resolutions so easily.)
- Déficelons ensemble ce mystère. (Let’s untie this mystery together.)
In these examples, déficeler is used to give an order or instruction to untie something. It can also be used in a figurative sense, as in the second and third examples, where it means “to loosen” or “to unravel.”
