"Jochie"
On a board in an Utrechtse café the term "Jochie" was announced as "het Utregse woord van het jaar 2018".
Does anyone know that?
Read that originally a 'Jochie' is a 'young boy' in the sense of a 'lad'.
But that it could be used as a good NL term for a 'pal', 'mate', 'fellow', 'bro'....
"In Utreg wordt ‘jochie’ gebruikt om iemand op een vriendschappelijke manier aan te spreken, ongeacht zijn leeftijd."
Think it is in use also all over the NL.
So, if e.g. you'd like to cheer to a friend as 'well done, mate!' you could say 'goed gedaan, jochie!'

Sounds like you're some brain-cracked.

So we'll let the people from the bruin café (Café Fokus that announced that as "woord van het jaar") know what you think about them!? Propably they won't call you being their "jochie"...

Feel sorry for you if that's the first thing that comes to your mind.
Ts, ts, perhabs better think about what you write as cannot cope with being too stoned...
