What is the Russian word the NKVD shouted at the people alot, it started with the letter D...? I want to use the word in an artwork. However I took the book back to the library. I forget how it is spelt. Thank you for any help. :)

davai actually means give, davai suda means give here. But, davai is also a way of saying hurry up, although it is a bit ruder than saying hurry up the normal way
