  What it means

  Literally “you could gouge out an eye.” Describes total, impenetrable darkness — so dark you can’t see your hand in front of your face.

  Vocabulary

  • oko — eye
  • wykłuć — to gouge out / to poke out

  Grammar note

  'Wykol' is an archaic/colloquial imperative of 'wykłuć.' 'Oko' is accusative — direct object. The 'choć' (even though / you could even) intensifies the darkness.
