I think "oddly" should be "odd".
What's an adverb doing in the middle of three adjectival synonyms anyway?

"grotesque" (i.e. "repulsively ugly") seems off the mark.
"strange" seems worthy of being included.
"queer" is apt, but it usually means sth different these days.
"eccentric" is perhaps not the best one to start the definition with.
Diff:
- 古怪 古怪 [gu3 guai4] /eccentric/grotesque/oddly/queer/
+ 古怪 古怪 [gu3 guai4] /strange/weird/eccentric/bizarre/
