Question

unorthodox adj.非正统的；异端的 (1) 恐怕你的英语有点不正规。(2) 他打网球的风格不合乎正统，但他通常总是赢球。(3) 持有非传统见解的人有时会遭到排斥。(4) 贝特森接受的是最正统的牛津教育，他从事的却是最异端的职业。 The adjective unorthodox originally referred to religion, specifically to a person or practice that went against the traditions of a particular belief. The Greek roots of unorthodox are orthos, or "right," and doxa, or "opinion." So someone whose beliefs are orthodox has "the right opinion," while an unorthodox person does not. The definition has evolved so that unorthodox's meaning is closer to "unusual" or "innovative" than just plain "wrong."
