Weirder is the comparative form of the adjective "weird." Weird describes something that is strange, peculiar, or unconventional. It refers to things, people, or situations that deviate from the normal or expected. When we say something is "weird," we mean it is bizarre, unusual, or out of the ordinary in a way that might be unsettling or unconventional.

It suggests an increased level of peculiarity, oddity, or unconventional behavior. It implies that the subject being described is even more bizarre or unusual than other things or people of its kind.
For instance, if someone says, "This movie is weird," they might mean that it contains strange and unexpected elements.
