Introduction to the verb déplier
The English translation of the French verb déplier is “to unfold” or “to unroll.” It is pronounced as “day-plee-ay” in its infinitive form.
Déplier comes from the Latin word “displiare,” meaning “to unfold or spread out.” In everyday French, it is often used in the Subjonctif Passé tense, which expresses actions or states that are hypothetical, uncertain, or contrary to reality in the past.

- J’aurais aimé que tu aies déplié la carte avant de partir. (I would have liked you to have unfolded the map before leaving.)
- Il est possible que je n’aie pas bien déplié le lit d’appoint. (It’s possible that I didn’t unfold the extra bed properly.)
- Je doute qu’elle ait déplié la lettre que je lui ai envoyée. (I doubt that she unfolded the letter I sent her.)
In these examples, déplier is used to express an action that may or may not have happened in the past. It is often used in conjunction with the auxiliary verbs “avoir” or “être” in the Subjonctif Passé tense.
