    Cool odd

    Hi,

    Odd means bizarre, right? So what does the title of the song of Phil Collins "against all odd" mean?

    Odd can mean several things, depending on the context. Against all odds is an expression. You can check out the definition here:

    No, 'odd' means quite a few things other than 'bizarre'.
