Neutral, everyday, a little like newspaper talk: writers like the word because it already says “hot, and maybe not for long.” A trend can last; a craze feels short and a bit mad. You do not call a person a craze.
Neutral, everyday, a little like newspaper talk中性、日常，有點像新聞用語： writers like the word because it already says "hot, and maybe not for long."寫作者喜歡用這個字，因為它本身就在說「很紅，但可能不會太久」。 A trend can lasttrend可以持續很久； a craze feels short and a bit madcraze則感覺短暫又有點瘋狂 You do not call a person a craze你不會用craze來稱呼一個人

Though actually, the word started as "to smash, to crack to pieces,"不過其實，這個字一開始的意思是「打碎、砸成碎片」， from an old Norse shatter-word源自一個古諾斯語的碎裂詞， that is, in the end, imitative而那個詞說到底是擬聲的—— it sounds like cracking聽起來就像碎裂的聲音 That older life is why crazed can mean a glaze full of tiny cracks這個較早的意義正是為什麼crazed可以指佈滿細小裂紋的釉面， and why crazy and crazed exist at all也是為什麼crazy和crazed這兩個字會存在的原因
The fashion sense grew from the idea of people going a bit wild for a thing. The verb to craze in everyday talk is rare now; the noun for the short fashion is the one you will actually meet.
