I sometimes see them on a forum where some English speakers teach my launguage. I looked up all of them a while ago and thought it might be safer to use "it doesn't sound very natural" for my intend. A native speaker once said I was weird as I was a very begginer. I've even never use weird to anyone in English and my language. But I know such a person is everywhere. I am sorry if I offensed someo

Within contexts, they could all mean about the same thing: basically out of the ordinary, not normal or usual, feeling uncomfortable. [ He has a weird name; that's why it's so easy to remember. ~ I always feel awkward at a party where I don't know anyone. ~ There's something off in this calculation; it isn't quite balanced. ~ It seems strange that she likes broccoli but not cauliflower. ]
