Introduction to the verb déchromer
The English translation of the French verb déchromer is “to remove chrome” or “to strip chrome.” It is pronounced as “day-kroh-may” in its infinitive form.
Déchromer comes from the combination of the prefix “dé-” (meaning “to remove”) and “chrome,” which comes from the Greek word “chroma” meaning “color.” It is most often used in everyday French in the Plus-Que-Parfait tense, which is the past perfect tense in English.
Here are three simple examples of its usage in the Plus-Que-Parfait tense:
- J’avais déchromé les poignées de la voiture. (I had removed the chrome handles from the car.)
- Tu avais déchromé les robinets pour les nettoyer. (You had stripped the chrome off the faucets to clean them.)
- Les mécaniciens avaient déchromé le pare-chocs pour le réparer. (The mechanics had removed the chrome from the bumper to repair it.)
In these examples, déchromer is used to indicate an action that had been completed in the past before another past action. It is often used when talking about repairs or renovations involving chrome.
