Brighten Ray I.	April 20, 2006 2:10 AM Ami, i wondered how we say...but in Japanese, it is little bit difficult to say. If "Crazy" for someone who is in sane, i know a word but it is a derogatory term. So i do not know if it is good to wirte. Although the word is very common, it is used for like a movie bug. If it means just he is (little bit) strange, we say kawarimono ekisentorikku (from eccentric). Sorry i cannot tell you simply!! [ send green star]

Edge H.	August 16, 2007 5:46 AM In Finland "hullu" (the initial "h" is aspirated) means a crazy person or thing. "Hän on hullu" "S/he is crazy" (there are no gender pronouns.) If referring to a happening or action you use the partitive form "hullua". "Tämä on aivan hullua!!" "This is totally crazy!" There are numerous slang expressions as well, but I'll spare you for the moment. One of my favourite words for crazy is Yiddish/Hebrew "meshugenah". It tastes delicious!

Janos K.	Crazy September 13, 2009 12:50 AM Hi you all! First, it’s meant for you, Edge. H. and, of course, Leiah O.: The word meshugah/-geh/-genah is used also in Hungarian, though in a bit changed form: it is mesüge, or müsüke. It’s cool, I didn’t even know that it is a word of Hebrew origin, but in Hungary, it doesn’t mean crazy but stupid, doltish. And now the other thing why I’m writing: Dear Ami! Though you’ve already got an answer from Hungary, from Anonymus, but I said, hey, two words?, it’s very weak, man! So if I try to characterize Anonymus, now it’s the very case when I can show the meaning of the Hungarian ”mesüge.” So, just a few words (’ns.’ means not slang, ’s.’ means slang, and I’m try to give the way, approximately, how to pronounce, when nothing is written, I was unable to do so. Plus, in some case, I’m giving some literal meaning): buggyant (s.; lit.: bubbled) dilis (dilish; s.), dilinyós, (dilinyawsh; s.) elmebajos (ns.) eszelős (ns.) hangyás (hondyush; s.; anted, i.e. one who has ants) háborodott (ns.) hibbant (hibbunt; s.) félnótás (failnawtush) (half-songed) flúgos (floogosh) golyós (goyawsh; s.) gyagya, gyagyás (dyadyush; s.) kattant (cuttunt; s.) lökött (s.; lit.: pushed) lüke stikkes (s.) süsü (s.) tébolyult (ns.) zakkant (s.) zizi (zizy; s.) And not to mention many phrases, for example: ”there’s nobody at home, at him/her” or ”he/she lacks a wheel.” [ send green star] [ accepted]
