@Peppeper peculiar is a atypical or odd. As with many words it depends on the context. I personally like peculiar things generally instead of plain vanilla which tends to be boring. For example my mole on my arm looks peculiar. This would definitely have a negative connotation. His accent sounded peculiar it was a combination of English and Korean. This wouldn’t be a bad thing because it would make the person unique.

lets put it this way.
if I said "my brother has a peculiar voice", and you've never met my sister, would the voice that you imagine be a unique(good) voice? or a quirky(bad) voice?

Peculiar can be both positive or negative. It means that someone has a specific characteristic different from common people.
