- 1a/ˈkreɪzi/crazy (mentally ill, dated/offensive)精神失常的
口語Having a serious illness of the mind. This use can hurt people, so mentally ill is the careful way to say it.
這是 crazy 最舊、也最需要小心的用法，指真正的精神疾病。現在英文裡多半只出現在人講自己的時候，例如 I wonder if I'm going crazy（我懷疑自己是不是快撐不住了）。要正經談論精神健康，英文會說 mentally ill；用 crazy 說別人會傷到人。
示範例句 · Example

中文翻譯我覺得如此孤單，以至於有時候我懷疑我是不是正在變得瘋狂。

- 2a/ˈkreɪzi/crazy (strange, absurd)瘋狂的／離譜的
口語Very strange, or not sensible at all — used about people, ideas, and things people do.
這是 crazy 最常用的意思：某件事或某個想法太奇怪、太不合理，讓人覺得說不通。日常對話裡很輕，說 That's crazy! 通常只是「太扯了吧」，不是真的說對方有病。也常說 It's crazy to do something（做某事很不明智）。
常見搭配
a crazy idea
瘋狂的點子
a plan that sounds very strange or unwise
She had a crazy idea about starting a school newspaper in two days.
sound crazy
聽起來很扯
to seem strange or unreasonable when you hear it

- 3a/ˈkreɪzi/crazy about (someone/something)迷戀／超愛
口語Liking someone very much, or being extremely interested in something — always used as 'crazy about someone/something'.
這個意思一定要配 about：crazy about him（很迷他）、crazy about football（超愛足球）。它比 like 強很多，接近中文的「迷上、著迷」。注意少了 about 就變成另一個意思了——He's crazy 是說他很奇怪，He's crazy about her 才是說他很喜歡她。
常見搭配
be crazy about someone
很迷某人
to like or love someone very much
Everyone could see she was crazy about him.
be crazy about something
超愛某樣東西
to be extremely interested in an activity or thing
