Anormal is used in both formal and everyday registers to describe anything deviating from what is expected — a medical result, unusual behaviour, or an irregular situation. The feminine is anormale, and the plural masculine is anormaux. Its opposite is normal, and the adverb anormalement means 'abnormally'.
