よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse "oddly" with "rarely" because "odd" can also mean a small number left over (e.g. "odd jobs", "odd numbers"). "Oddly" almost always means "in a strange way", not "not often". Another mistake is using the adjective form instead of the adverb, e.g. saying "He behaves odd" instead of "He behaves oddly".

よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes put "oddly" in the middle of the clause in this meaning, where it sounds like the first sense (manner) instead of a comment on the whole sentence. For example, "He, oddly, refused the offer" is possible but less natural than "Oddly, he refused the offer". Also, many learners overuse "oddly enough" in formal writing; in very formal texts, "surprisingly" or "interestingly" may be more appropriate.
