Introduction to the verb autographier
The English translation of the French verb autographier is “to autograph.” It is pronounced as “oh-toh-gra-fee-ay” in the infinitive form.
The word “autographier” is derived from the French word “autographe,” which comes from the Ancient Greek words “autos” meaning “self” and “grapho” meaning “to write.” It entered the French language in the 18th century and has been used to refer to the act of signing one’s name as a form of personal identification or signature.

It is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” in the Conditionnel Présent tense, followed by the past participle of the main verb (in this case, “autographié”).
