A quick definition of delirium tremens:

Delirium tremens is a serious illness that can happen when someone drinks too much alcohol for a long time. It can cause scary things like seeing things that aren't there and shaking really badly. Some people call it "mania a potu" or "settled insanity."

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Delirium tremens is a medical condition that occurs when a person who has been drinking alcohol excessively for a long time suddenly stops drinking. It is characterized by hallucinations, confusion, and violent trembling.

Example: John had been drinking heavily for years, and when he decided to quit, he experienced delirium tremens. He saw things that weren't there, felt like bugs were crawling on his skin, and couldn't stop shaking.

Explanation: This example illustrates how delirium tremens can affect a person who has been drinking heavily for a long time. The sudden cessation of alcohol consumption can cause the brain to go into a state of confusion, leading to hallucinations and physical symptoms such as trembling. It is a serious medical condition that requires immediate treatment.
