or the polite form "Kapcsolja ki!" (this latter would be the warning sign on some appliance rather, while the first is spoken amongst friends.) | ||

I think it's to tell people to turn lights off and conserve electricity. | ||

I'm not exactly a fluent speaker of mandarin, but wouldn't guan diao be more appropriate for electronics than guan shang? | ||

"Ugasi to!" or "Isključi to!" (I guess this one refers more to some electronic devices, but the other is also used a lot.) This roughly means: (You (singular)) turn it off! If that's not what you meant, just send me a PM. | ||
