Zumstein,

Sugestão:

There's no doubt he's crazy,totally crazy.
There's no doubt he's crazy,completely crazy.


Boa sorte!

[Flavia.lm]

Gosto de "nuts"
He is completely nuts = Ele é doido/maluco/pirado
You're not in your right mind = Vc não bate bem das idéias / endoideceu de vez.

[zumstein]

Sugestão, só pra completar:

Ele está doido, doidinho da silva = He’s raving mad, completely crazy.

Embora fora do contexto, mas apenas para registro:

Se fosse: Ele está morto, mortinho da silva. Seria: - He’s dead, dead as a doornail.

Conservando o “da silva”.

Bye folks

FONTE: a line from this movie.

[Adriano Japan]

*Adding:

mentally deranged/incompetent

→Examples:
Welcome to where time stands still
No one leaves and no one will
Moon is full, never seems to change
Just labeled mentally deranged
Dream the same thing every night
I see our freedom in my sight
No locked doors, no windows barred
No things to make my brain seem scarred

Of course, articles could have mentioned that Shonozawa’s lawyer attempted to argue that he was mentally incompetent at the time of the murder – but, really, how much of the public would fall for a “Classic Clarence Darrow?”
