Re Doug's comments about the list of supposed archaic words. That they are mostly just everyday words in his part of England! I'd say exactly the same in regard to here in Scotland too. For instance the word "mad" is used all the time to mean "angry". Sometimes just itself or often some other word to accentuate if further. For example "hopping mad".

Concise Scots Dictionary - gives various definitions of the word mad including - infuriated, besides oneself with rage, angry, annoyed.

Just a very common everyday word.
