- 1格格不入的人、不合群的人
A misfit is a person who does not seem to belong in a group. The others share a way of talking, dressing, or thinking; this person is different enough that the group does not take them in — or they cannot settle there. It is about social fit, not about being bad at a job, though a worker can feel like a misfit in an office too. The word can sound a little sad, but people also use it with warmth: a band of misfits, proud not to match. Clothes that do not fit were probably the older picture; today we almost always mean people. Informal to neutral; common in stories about school, work, and growing up. One person is a misfit; you can also talk about feeling like a misfit without making it your whole name.
組成mis- (badly, wrongly) + fit (to match, to be the right size or the right kind).
