Introduction to the verb décanter
The English translation of the French verb décanter is “to decant.” It is pronounced as [deh-kahn-teh] in the infinitive form.
Décanter comes from the French word “cante,” which means “to sing.” The prefix “de-” means “off” or “down,” so décanter literally means “to sing off” or “to pour off.” It originally referred to the process of pouring wine from a bottle into a decanter to remove any sediment.
In everyday French, décanter is most often used in the Futur Antérieur tense to indicate an action that will have been completed in the future. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” in the future tense, followed by the past participle of the main verb.
