Abstract: In this paper, we define the notions of orbifold loop and orbifold road, with which, we reformulate the definition of orbifold fundamental group and deck translation group. We show that, for each orbifold, the orbifold fundamental group is isomorphic to the deck translation group.

Key words: Groupoid presentation, Orbifold loop, Orbifold road, Orbifold fundamental group, Deck translation group
