{\huge {\black{Queer}}}

queer (comparative queerer, superlative  queerest)

(dated) Weird, odd or different; whimsical. [from 16th c.]

1865, Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

{\huge {\green{Examples :-}}}

➡“I wish I hadn’t cried so much!” said Alice, as she swam about, trying to find her way out. “I shall be punished for it now, I suppose, by being drowned in my own tears! That will be a queer thing, to be sure! However, everything is queer to-day.”

➡1877, Ulysses S. Grant, page 252, The Papers of Ulysses S. Grant: November 1, 1876–September 30, 1878<br>

➡One thing has struck me as a bit queer. During my two terms of office the whole Democratic press, and the morbidly honest and 'reformatory' portion of the Republican press, thought it horrible to keep U.S. troops stationed in the Southern States, and when they were called upon to protect the lives of negroes–as much citizens under the Constitution as if their skins were white–the country was scarcely large enough to hold the sound of indignation belched forth by them for some years. Now, however, there is no hesitation about exhausting the whole power of the government to suppress a strike on the slightest intimation that danger threatens.

1885, David Dixon Porter, page 274, Incidents and Anecdotes of the Civil War.

➡It looked queer to me to see boxes labeled "His Excellency, Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America." The packages so labeled contained Bass ale or Cognac brandy, which cost "His Excellency" less than we Yankees had to pay for it. Think of the President drinking imported liquors while his soldiers were living on pop-corn and water!

1927, J. B. S. Haldane, “Possible Worlds” in Possible Worlds and Other Papers, London: Chatto & Windus,,

➡Now, my own suspicion is that the universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can  suppose.

(Britain) Slightly unwell (mainly in to feel queer). [from 18th c.]

(colloquial) Homosexual. [from 20th c.]

(colloquial) Not heterosexual: homosexual, bisexual, asexual, etc.

(broadly) Pertaining to sexual  behaviour or identity which does not conform to conventional heterosexual norms, assumptions etc. [from 20th c.]

1999, Judith Butler, Gender Trouble, Routledge 2002, Preface to 1999 edition:

If gender is no longer to be understood as consolidated through normative sexuality, then is there a crisis of gender that is specific to queer  contexts?

 {\huge {\blue{Synonyms}}}

(weird, odd or different)  strange

(unwell)  diseased

(homosexual)   homosexual

(unconventional sexual behaviour)
