Bliksem – to hit. This is a derogative term meaning to hit or punch someone.

Bra / Bru – friend.This term is commonly used to call a friend, pal or buddy.

Eina! – ouch! [Ay-na].Usually expressed when someone experiences a sharp pain of some sort.

Now Now – immediately / soon.A confusing phrase for non-locals meaning sometime soon – sooner than just now but quicker than right now.

Shebeen – an unlicensed bar [sha-been]These are unlicensed bars..Visited a few in my younger days as alcohol was banned to sell on weekends ..Still is lol

Voetsek! – Go away![foot-sak]..Usually said with an angry tone when telling someone to go away or get lost.
