Introduction to the verb décharger
The English translation of the French verb décharger is “to unload” or “to discharge”. It is pronounced as “day-shar-zhay” in its infinitive form.
Décharger comes from the Old French word “deschargier”, which is derived from the Latin word “discarricare”, meaning “to unload”. In everyday French, décharger is often used in the Passé Composé (Present Perfect) tense to talk about actions that have been completed in the past.

In these examples, décharger is used to talk about physical or emotional unloading that has been completed in the past. It can also be used in a more figurative sense, such as “décharger sa conscience” (to unburden one’s conscience).
