Introduction to the verb chromer
The English translation of the French verb chromer is to chrome or to plate. It is pronounced “kroh-may” in its infinitive form.

In everyday French, chromer is most often used in the L’impératif Présent tense, which is the imperative form used for giving commands or instructions. Here are three simple examples of its usage in this tense, with their respective English translations:
