뜻
to stop something abruptly.
문화적 배경
Danes value 'rygrad' (willpower). Taking a cold tyrker is seen as a sign of mental strength and character. In Danish healthcare, doctors warn that a 'kold tyrker' can be dangerous for alcoholics due to seizure risks. The phrase is now heavily used in the context of 'Digital Detox' among Danish youth. The shift from 'turkey' to 'tyrker' is a famous example of Danish folk etymology taught in schools.

Not for people
