When something is délabré, it means it's old and broken. Think of a very old house that no one has taken care of. The walls might be falling apart, the roof might have holes, and the paint is peeling. That house is délabré. You can also use it for things that are not buildings, like an old car that doesn't work well anymore or a piece of furniture that is falling apart. It means it's in a bad state because it hasn't been maintained.
When something is délabré, it means it's old and falling apart. Think of an old house with broken windows or a worn-out jacket with holes. It's not in good condition anymore. We use délabré to describe things that are neglected and showing signs of decay. So, if you see a building that looks like it's about to collapse, you can say it's délabré.
