"... Dünyalılar Delirdi ..."
Deli: Latince değil, Türkçe kökenlidir. İlk kez MS 1.yy'da Cornelius Celsus tarafından "delirium" olarak kullanıldı. Avrupa dillerinde ise sadece akademi çevresinde 16.yy'dan itibaren görülür, halk arasında kullanımı yoktur. Tarihimiz içinde birçok kahraman Deli lakabını taşır bunlardan biri de Deli Dündar/Tundar'dır. Turovalı Elene'nin babasının adı da Tyndareus, yani < Tundar(-eus) olarak geçer ki -eus eki bile Yunanca değildir... ;)

The earthlings went Delirious
* Deliratio: Latin verb, which is 'deliriare' meaning 'to rave, to be crazy' and its related noun 'delirium', meaning 'madness'...
* Delirium (n.)
1590s, "a disordered state, more or less temporary, of the mind, often occurring during fever or illness," from Latin delirium "madness," from deliriare "be crazy, rave," literally "go off the furrow," a plowing metaphor, from phrase de lire, from de "off, away" (see de-) + lira "furrow, earth thrown up between two furrows," from PIE root *lois- "track, furrow." Meaning "violent excitement, mad rapture" is from 1640s. (link)
But... the etymology is Not Latin !...
It is Turkish of etymology: DELİRMEK (Telü, Delü, Deli)
First used by Cornelius Celsus in the 1st century BC, as "delirium". From the 16th century used in European languages, but not among the people, only among the scholars.
We have many heroes with the nickname "Deli" in history:
Deli Dumrul, Deli Budak, Deli Hasan, Deli Urak, Deli Dündar/Tundar** or Deliler, bold and brave scout warriors in Seljuk and Ottoman period.
** Tundar; male name, just like the name of Tyndareus (Tundar-eus), the father of Helen of Troy!.. ;)
So, who are you kidding with all that "indo-european language centric" resources !... Definitely not us ... ;)
