A feature or condition that deviates from the norm or expected pattern.
Origin:
The term "abnormality" comes from the Greek word "anōmalia," meaning "uneven" or "irregular." In the 17th century, the term was used in medicine to describe a deviation from the normal structure or function of the body. Over time, the term came to be used more broadly to refer to any deviation from the norm, whether physical, mental, or social.
