In mien Modder-"Platt" seggt wi ook:

"De Hohnen is de Böberste van de Hööner.", or " Wo sünd de Hohnens
affbleeben?" ("The cock is the boss of the chicken" or " Where are all the
*g*ock[el]s gone :-)"?)

Jüst sau:

"Legg' dennen Hunnen anne Keeden![all singular]" ( "Fasten the dog at the
chain!"- "put a corb to the dog[??]"=[from Langenscheid English
dictionary]).

Greutens/sincerely
