hurly-burlyn.adj.adv.

/ˈhəːlɪˈbəːli/

Forms: Also (with or without hyphen) Middle English whorlle bourlle, 1500s howrley burlei, horl(e)y borl(e)y, hurly burle, hurlei burley, whorle borle, whourliburly, 1500s–1600s hurli(e) burli(e), -ly(e, -ley, 1500s– hurley burley.

Etymology: Origin uncertain. In the later phrase hurling and burling the first word is apparently hurling n. 3, ‘commotion’, and burling seems to have been merely an initially-varied repetition of it, as in other ‘reduplicated’ combinations and phrases which express non-uniform repetition or alternation of action. Hurly-burly probably holds the same relation to hurling and burling , that the simple hurly n.¹ holds to hurling n. 3.But hurly-burly cannot, with present evidence, be considered a direct formation < hurly, since the latter has not been found before 1596. It is difficult to establish any historical contact with French hurluberlu a heedless, hasty person (Rabelais a1535), or the German hurliburli adverb, precipitately, with headlong haste (see Littré and Grimm).

A. n.

a. Commotion, tumult, strife, uproar, turmoil, confusion. (Formerly a more dignified word than now.)
