What is the capital of Tunisia?

Most common ways of remarking something is weird, strange, or unusual?

C’est bizarre or c’est étrange are generally the two most used expressions to describe that something is weird. I wouldn’t say that one of those is way more used than the other. For instance, to say :

The door is open ? That’s weird.

You would usually say :

La porte est ouverte ? C’est bizarre.

La porte est ouverte ? C’est étrange.

Sometimes people will turn it in the idea of something "suspicious" : c’est louche. You can sometimes hear the slang version of this expression : c’est chelou.

You may also hear instead that "it is not normal" : ce n’est pas normal.

La porte est ouverte ? Ce n’est pas normal.

It does apply to the idea of something unusual. You may also hear c’est inhabituel (literally "it’s unusual") or ce n’est pas commun ("this is not common").

Possibilités (dans un ordre décroissant d’usage):

  • bizarre
  • étrange
  • anormal (ou pas normal comme suggéré par Isuka)
  • curieux
  • spécial
  • étonnant
  • spèce (forme familière de spécial)
  • chelou (louche en nouveau verlan)
  • baroque (de plus en plus utilisé pour apporter un peu de style)
  • saugrenu

Beaucoup plus de synonyme sur le CNRTL (selon le contexte).
