The English translation of the French verb déshumaniser is “to dehumanize.” It is pronounced as “day-zoo-ma-knee-zay.”
The word déshumaniser is derived from the French prefix “dé,” meaning “to undo” or “to remove,” and the word “humain,” meaning “human.” It is most often used in everyday French in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, which is used to express an action that would have happened before another action in the past, if the first action had been completed.
