Dennis says that:
"For example we say "doedde radio dwoad" (doe de radio dood), meaning
"kill the radio", meaning "officially" turn out the radio!".
We use it for radio, television, light (doe de lucht dwoad)(kill the
light...)."

Op de een of andere manier klinkt dat nieteens raar in mijn oren. In het
Nederlands zeggen we ook. "Doe het licht uit" en "Ðoe die Televisie
uit!!!"
Any relationship? Jacqueline
