- triyambakam 1y agoAha yes thank you for explaining. I agree!
- yencabulator 1y agoAnd it makes a lot more sense when you realize "prøv" means trial/test. "Attempt this feat of bravery and stop me". It's a diss/brag, depending on whether it's aimed at others or self. "In this quest I shall be victorious and wash the dog" = "I'll try and wash the dog"
