Introduction to the verb délinéer
The English translation of the French verb délinéer is “to outline” or “to delineate.” The infinitive form is pronounced as “day-lee-nay.”

In everyday French, délinéer is most often used in the Conditionnel Passé tense, which is used to talk about events or actions that could have happened in the past, but did not. It is formed by using the conditional form of the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être,” followed by the past participle of délinéer.
