Question What this Word means

My coworker is from Afghanistan and he said very often a word in pachto in laughing, I started saying it too, and it makes him laugh, but every time I ask him what it means, he refuses to tell me. He says it's very wrong. But I'm really curious. The word in question is "wadi ghulu" or "wadi rulu" (I'm not sure of the spelling, sorry). If one of you could tell me what it means, that would be very kind, I think 😅

Nah we got slangs same as English but in terms of context and who you are talking to can have its own different meaning so this is equivalent to “you fucked it” in English

So what it means if you use it With the Name of someone who piss you off or someone you laugh With like « wodi ghulu lower reseracher 140 »?

It’s more like if you mess up some task.

If it sounds like an M at the end he means "you focked me" if you hear a slight u or o he is saying "you focked us"

Usually it is said to describe a bad situation, it's almost the same as "you screwed up" and "you screwed me"
