Which definition best fits 'odd'?

• A. Unable to be divided by two
• B. Strange or uncommon
• C. Unexpected
• D. Peculiar

Answer: (B)

The statement tests a common usage of the word odd: something that is unusual or out of the ordinary. In everyday language you’d say an odd habit, an odd coincidence, or an odd situation to describe something that stands out as not typical. That sense—strange or uncommon—is the best fit.

Be aware there’s a mathematical sense of odd (not divisible by two), but that is a specialized usage, not the general meaning people rely on in vocabulary questions. Saying something is unexpected can feel related, but it doesn’t capture the broad idea of being unusual in general as effectively as “strange or uncommon.” While “peculiar” is close, the most direct, widely applicable definition for everyday use is the sense of being unusual or out of the ordinary.
