Leyve Jonny,
Ik dou dat wourd wul kennen un bruken. "Wourd"? Nee! "Woyrd'": _so draad' (as)_
"Draad'" (~ "dra" [drQ:.(d)] < drade), as ook Nedderlandsch _dra_ (< _drade_)
beduydt "(sehr) bald" up Duytsch.
'Neem dat vun af-kamen dayt, dat weet ik ook nich.
I do know and use the word. "Word"? No! "Words": _so draad' (as)_ 'as soon as'
_Draad'_ (~ _dra_ [drQ:.(d)] < drade), like Dutch _dra_ (< _drade_) means 'soon'.
I have no idea about the origin.
Kumpelmenten,
Reinhard/Ron
