Introduction to the verb dénationaliser
The English translation of the French verb dénationaliser is “to denationalize” or “to denationalize/de-nationalize.”
In French, the infinitive form of dénationaliser is pronounced as [dena-sjo-na-li-ze].
Dénationaliser is derived from the French prefix “dé-” meaning “undo” or “reverse” and the root word “nationaliser” meaning “to nationalize.” The word originated in the early 20th century during a time when many countries were undergoing nationalization of industries and resources.
In everyday French, dénationaliser is used in the Passé Antérieur tense, which is a compound tense used to describe actions that occurred before another past action. It is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” in the passé simple tense and the past participle of the main verb.
