Noun:

Verb:
advertize noisily or blatantly爱尔兰科克郡Cork County有个名叫Ballyhooly的小村于，因村民好在街上大声争论而一度退迩闻名。有一份1934年3月的美国国会议事录这样写道：“村民以极为激烈的方式进行辩论，在国会辩论史或普通辩论史上都是无与伦比的，英语中的ballyhoo一词正是出自此粪激烈辩论。”人们据此认为ballyhoo源于该地名。然而，ballyhoo今天所用的“大吹大擂”或“大肆宣传”一义究其根源则有可能是出自美国的。19世纪90年代马戏团等常在帐篷前搭一称之为ballystand的宣传台，艺人们在台上表演一些精彩杂耍，以吸引观众，招秣生意，这种旨在宣传的演出叫bally showoballyhoo可能系bally whoop之讹误，它被赋予上述词义恐怕与此有关。约在1910年前后ballyhoo成了一个好莱坞广告用语，在美国广为使用。20世纪30年代大萧条时期有个杂志就以Ballyhoo为名。
