Introduction to the verb dénasaliser
The English translation of the French verb dénasaliser is “to denasalize.” It is pronounced as “day-nah-zah-lee-zay.”
The word dénasaliser comes from the French prefix “dé-” which means “undo” or “remove” and the noun “nasal” which refers to the nose. Thus, dénasaliser literally means “to undo the nasal sound.”
In everyday French, dénasaliser is most often used in the Plus-que-parfait tense, which is the past perfect tense. This tense is used to express an action that was completed before another action in the past. Here are three simple examples of dénasaliser in this tense:
- J’avais dénasalisé le mot pour qu’il soit plus facile à prononcer. (I had denasalized the word to make it easier to pronounce.)

- Ils avaient dénasalisé leurs voix en chantant une chanson comique. (They had denasalized their voices while singing a funny song.)
In all three examples, the action of denasalizing took place before another action in the past (pronouncing, talking, singing). This tense is used to show that the action of dénasaliser was already completed before the main action in the past.
