How about "nosy"?

curious = always wanting more information. Also,
curious = odd. in this sentence, it has to mean wanting more information in English.

[Poef9]

Is "curieux" similarly ambiguous in French?

[deactivated user]

Yes

[shunting65]

Amusing that the bear is telling me how unbearable it is

[Linda4tennis]

I think inquisitive is the better word to use here as curious could mean odd, but it was marked wrong.

[BrianBoru4]

Yes, the dictionaries support inquisitive = curieux. Have reported.

[Carticlem]

it's,it is?

[InvertedGo]

Both work and mean the same thing.

[Laine168260]

I have failed with the pronunciation many times, does anyone else have a problem?

[OldMansChild]

pourquoi c'est insupportable? je suis curieux.

[Dave445544]

Odd. I used "mother in law" (no hyphens) and they insist I have an extra space. (No real way to report this.)

[uchual]

Is should be nosy or prying, rather than curious. Or does this word have a stronger negative connotation in French?

[LesleyLath]

'inquisitive' is rejected, why when it's a dictionary definition?
