دهرخوارد دان DERXWARD DAN
Derxward dan means (I think) "to secretly feed" (??).
Eger daykim bêt bo êre, goştî berazî derxward eyem (edem).
means
"If my mother comes here, I'm going to feed her pork."
Note: I hope this post doesn't offend anyone. My husband was joking around and hoping his mother could come to visit soon, and would not actually do this as she is Muslim. I just thought the verb was interesting, and we are a bit lighthearted joking about this sort of thing.
