Introduction to the verb désactiver
The English translation of the French verb désactiver is “to deactivate.” It is pronounced as “day-zak-tee-vay.”
The word désactiver is derived from the French prefix dés- (meaning “to undo”) and the verb activer (meaning “to activate”). It is most often used in everyday French in the Subjonctif Passé tense, which is a compound tense used to express the past tense in a subjunctive mood.
