Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer:

Weirdness can be grouped by whether it suggests something simply uncommon, mysteriously unexplained, or wildly out of the ordinary. Let's look at some of these words.

"Strange", "odd", and "unusual" are general terms that are on the tame side, with "strange" being neutral but unfamiliar, "odd" suggesting something slightly off, and "unusual" referring to anything not typical or expected. "Peculiar", "curious", and "abnormal" point to things that stand out for being different, with "peculiar" implying a personal kind of weirdness, "curious" suggesting something oddly interesting, and "abnormal" indicating a clear departure from what's considered normal.

"Eerie", "mysterious", "supernatural", and "unnatural" all carry a more unsettling or unexplained tone. "Eerie" describes a spooky or ghostly feel, "mysterious" involves something puzzling or unknown, "supernatural" refers to things beyond natural laws, and "unnatural" implies something that goes against what's normally found in nature.

Finally, "bizarre", "outlandish", "kooky", "wacky", and "fantastical" lean toward the extreme or imaginative, with "bizarre" and "outlandish" highlighting wild, almost unbelievable weirdness, "kooky" and "wacky" suggesting playful or eccentric behavior, and "fantastical" involving dreamlike or magical elements.

The other terms were all antonyms for the word "weird".
