Bedeutung
To switch on an electric light.
Kultureller Hintergrund
French homes often have multiple light sources rather than one central ceiling light. In Quebec, you might hear 'ouvrir la lumière' due to English influence, though it is considered non-standard. Energy saving is a cultural priority; turning off lights is emphasized.
