    Turn the lights off.

    Turn off the light.

    Do you think we have stock in <insert power company>!

    Then the rest just clap, they are primarly our QVC type Americans, the same who think owning a chiapet is gardening.

          I just rarely hear the word switch used that way unless your actually talking to someone about the light switch. However not when you are asking them to turn it off. Though I have heard some people say flick too, though very rarely.

                                  "Turn the light off"

                                  or

                                  "Turn off the light"

                                  Both would be acceptable, and commonplace.

                                        Well, the rules tell us not to end a sentence with a preposition.

                                        So, turn off the light or switch off the light are preferred.

                                              Yep. Even though the device is called a "light switch", we say "turn off" and "turn on".

                                                In that usage, "off" is an adverb - not a preposition.
