Pitch Dark

Pitch dark - How do you say this in Teochew?

I heard such an expression this morning and I thought I would share it with you

房內烏天暗地睇唔見

房内乌天暗地睇唔见

The room is pitch dark, unable to see.

房間昏天黑地看不見|

房间昏天黑地看不见


I would have said tion2m6dioh4 睇唔著 for being unable to see but there are many ways to skin a cat.
