Introduction to the verb dépareiller
The English translation of the French verb dépareiller is “to mismatch” or “to mismatched”. The infinitive form is pronounced as “day-pah-ray-yay.”
Dépareiller comes from the combination of the prefix “dé-” meaning “un-” or “dis-” and the word “pareil” meaning “same” or “equal”.
