Will Report post Posted January 23, 2006 Yeah, I always find I need to look up the definition in the dictionary too... all they do is give you long words which are even more confusing... It annoys me. Â I'll stick to short words in the future, but idiosyncratic's one of my favourites, and I need to use it in an exam tomorrow, but I know it because of AS etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zemanski Report post Posted January 23, 2006 they both mean 'out of the ordinary' Â idiosyncratic means you do things in a way that is particular to you. Â Zemanski Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
