Was bedeutet "geheuer"? I already have a pretty vague general understanding of the word "geheuer". I've looked it up in several online dictionaries and they all give me definitions that are part of a larger phrase or expression. For example, one dictionary says that the phrase "Das ist nicht ganz geheuer" means "That's a bit fishy." Another dictionary says that roughly the same things means "to feel uneasy about it." And there's also the word "Ungeheuer", which I know means monster or ogre. But what EXACTLY does the word "geheuer" mean by itself? Is there an equivalent in English? Or can geheuer only be used as part of a larger phrase or sentence? I want to have a more precise comprehension of this word. Can someone please explain it to me?
