In the film Bella Martha, around the 40 min mark, a waiter comes into the restaurant's kitchen and says to the chefs "Die 6 kann weiter".
What does this mean?
Reverso translates this from German to English literally as "Carry on with table 6", which doesn't mean anything in this context.
Reverso also translates it from German to Italian as "Siete pronti con il 6?", which does make sense, but it's not clear how that translation was arrived at.
That's a workplace setting. They often has specific idioms as 10-4 or, in this case
Die Sechs kann weiter.
My guess was the waiter tells the cook to do the final preparation of the next course for table six.
