What Does This Mean?

[ FRENCH INTERNET CULTURE ][ MACHINE CULTURE ]

To send someone a private/direct message — a proper French verb, fully conjugated (je péverte, il a péveté), built directly from the abbreviation PV (message privé, "private message").

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Je te péverte pour t'expliquer en détail."

LORE & ORIGIN

French chat and forum slang from the 2000s that took the common abbreviation PV (message privé) and verbified it according to standard French verb morphology, giving French forum culture its own native grammatical way to say "to DM someone" rather than borrowing an English phrase.
