Introduction to the verb désencadrer
The English translation of désencadrer is “to unframe” or “to remove from the frame”. It is pronounced as “day-zahn-kah-dreh”.
The word désencadrer comes from the French prefix dés- meaning “un-” or “de-” and the verb encadrer which means “to frame”. It is most often used in everyday French in the Passé Antérieur tense, which is a compound tense used to talk about actions that were completed before another past action. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb avoir or être in the Imparfait tense, followed by the past participle of the main verb.

- J’ai désencadré la photo avant de l’accrocher au mur. (I unframed the photo before hanging it on the wall.)
- Nous avons désencadré tous les tableaux pour les déplacer. (We unframed all the paintings in order to move them.)
- Elle est partie sans désencadrer les photos de famille. (She left without unframing the family photos.)
In all of these examples, the action of unframing took place before another past action, indicated by the auxiliary verb used in the Imparfait tense.
