Introduction to the verb débillarder
The English translation of the French verb débillarder is “to clear the decks” or “to tidy up.” It is pronounced “day-bee-yar-day” in its infinitive form.
Débillarder comes from the combination of two words: “dé-” which means “to remove” or “to undo” and “billard” which means “billiards.” It was originally used in the context of clearing and cleaning a billiards table.
