@Mnemosientje Are you sure this is in use in the meaning "brains"? I only know it as a colloquial (Netherlands-only?) term for a head. ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 10:52, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Lingo Bingo Dingo I feel that if it's used to mean "head" that would be a pars pro toto but not the primary meaning. To me this definitely refers to the brains first and foremost; I always understood it to be a nonstandard variant of hersenen/hersens. (Compare the spelling harsens for example.) So yes, in my experience it is absolutely used with that meaning. — Mnemosientje (t · c) 08:18, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
