[Vocabulary] Freak/Misfit

[Mr.Lucky_One]

Please, could anyone tell me if these nouns might be synonyms?

 

[Rover_KE]

They might be, depending in the context.

They're listed as such in some sources, including this one.

There are plenty of contexts where they wouldn't be synonyms- you can have a freak event (unexpected) like a freak storm, where misfit would not work.

Thanks. Yes, I understand this.
In case of talking about a person who behaves extraordinarily or not appropriately or strange, or has a weird appearance (in other people's opinions) I guess they are synonyms, are not they?
