I looke dit up on a noline dictionary of colloquial language, the expression super-duper is informal and it means extremely pleasing, impressive, etc. and it īs odten used as an exclamation.
Hope it has been useful :-)

Hiya
It means excellent, amazing, incredible e.g. I had a super duper time today
If you google it you will see examples of usage. Some people also spell it super dooper.
Cheers
Jayho
P.S. Simplico - perhaps you shoud start a new topic for your query - that way you will get a better range of answers |
