"meh-SHU-gah", originally a Hebrew word, is used in Yiddish as an adjective to mean 'crazy', but in the colloquial sense, certainly not as a formal medical diagnosis. A couple of examples: -- If your friend suggests a plan with which you totally disagree, you might express your disbelief by asking him "What are you ? Meshuga ? ! That'll never work." -- If you are overwhelmed by all the little things you have to take care of today, you might heave a big sigh and exclaim "Oy ! This paperwork is making me meshuga !"
