Introduction to the verb dérocher
The English translation of the French verb dérocher is “to dislodge/to cause to fall/to detach”. The infinitive form of dérocher is pronounced “day-roh-shay”.

In everyday French, dérocher is commonly used in the Subjonctif Plus-que-parfait tense, which expresses an action that was supposed to have happened before another past action. It is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” in the Imparfait tense, followed by the past participle of dérocher.
