(UK) To become ill.
To be outrageously unreasonable.
A British regional expression meaning to suddenly become ill — especially describing the unexpected, acute onset of sickness. If someone 'is taken bad,' they haven't been gradually declining; they've just suddenly gone down hard. The passive construction ('taken') suggests illness as something that happens to you rather than something you develop, reflecting that feeling of being ambushed by sudden sickness. Common in Northern England and parts of the Midlands.
(slang) behavior.
