Introduction to the verb décomprimer
The English translation of the French verb décomprimer is “to decompress.” It is pronounced as [dey-kohm-pruh-mey] in its infinitive form.
Décomprimer comes from the combination of the prefix “dé-” meaning “un-” or “de-” and the verb “compresser” meaning “to compress.” It is most often used in everyday French in the passé antérieur tense, which is a past tense used to describe completed actions that happened before another past action.

- Ils eurent décompressé la bouteille avant de la boire. (They had decompressed the bottle before drinking it.)
In these examples, décomprimer is used to describe an action that was completed before another past action. The use of passé antérieur tense emphasizes the completion of the action and its relevance to the past event.
