queerish
A bit strange
Queerish means somewhat strange or slightly odd—queer with a hedging suffix that softens the claim: The whole situation felt queerish, though I couldn't say exactly why.
The word is uncommon and sounds dated, from an era when queer primarily meant peculiar rather than relating to sexuality.
