A feature or quality of something that is not normal and seems strange or unusual.
वापर नमुना:
a peculiarity of [something] is [that‑clause]
सामान्य चूक:
Learners sometimes use *peculiarity* when they only mean a normal feature, but the word usually suggests that the feature is strange or at least unusual. They also sometimes say *it is a peculiarity* when they need the adjective *it is peculiar*.
समानार्थी शब्द
oddity (Stronger focus on how surprising or strange the feature is, often slightly negative.)
|
quirk (More informal and often lighter in tone, sometimes sounding more charming than problematic.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
normality (Emphasizes that nothing about the feature is unusual or unexpected.)

unusual personal habit or quirk
A strange or special habit that a person has and other people notice.
वापर नमुना:
[someone]'s peculiarity is [verb‑ing / that‑clause]
सामान्य चूक:
Learners sometimes confuse *peculiarity* with *peculiar*, saying *he is a peculiarity* instead of *he is peculiar* or *he has a peculiarity*. Another mistake is to use it for major problems; it usually suggests small, specific habits, not serious disorders.
समानार्थी शब्द
quirk (Very common for small, often harmless or charming habits.)
|
idiosyncrasy (More formal and technical, often used in psychology or careful description.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
normal behavior (Highlights that a person acts in a usual way, without noticeable odd habits.)

distinctive characteristic or feature
A special feature that clearly shows what a person, group, or system is like; it does not have to be strange.
वापर नमुना:
the peculiarities of [a system / culture / group]
सामान्य चूक:
Learners may think *peculiarity* always means something is strange or bad. In formal writing it often just means a special or distinctive feature, so the tone can be neutral.
समानार्थी शब्द
characteristic (More general and more common, without any suggestion of oddness.)
|
feature (Very broad and neutral; does not highlight distinctiveness as strongly.)
विरुद्धार्थी शब्द
common feature (Emphasizes that something is shared widely, rather than being specific to one group or system.)
