doolalIy发疯的；发狂的

【使用地区】：英国

【释义】：

Nuts，bonkers．British troops in India during the nineteenth century waited in the town of Deolali for troopships to take them home after their enlistment expired．Deolali，which they pronounced Doolally，became the scene of so much aberrant behavior among soldiers with too much time on their hands that the town’s name became synonymous with their crazy behavior．

此词意义如上所示。19世纪，驻扎在印度的英国军队在服役期满后，在第厄拉莱镇等候军舰送他们回国。第厄拉莱，那些士兵读作Doolally，等在那里无所事事，就像发疯似的尽情发泄，行为怪异，以至该镇的名字成为了他们发狂行为的代名词。
