8 out of place

1) неуместный, не к месту, сказанный или сделанный некстати, не вовремя

The sight of a man lying wearied out with hard work, as your husband lay, made me feel that to brag of my own fortune to you would be greatly out of place. (Th. Hardy, ‘The Return of the Native’, book IV, ch. VIII) — Вид вашего мужа, когда он лежал измученный тяжелой работой, заставил меня почувствовать, что хвалиться перед вами моей удачей было бы весьма некстати.

Waiting for the doctor were two women, as still as though they were paralyzed, and a man in a railroad brakeman's uniform, holding his bandaged right hand with his tanned left. They stared at Carol. She sat modestly in a stiff chair, feeling frivolous and out of place. (S. Lewis, ‘Main Street’, ch. XV) — Доктора ждали две женщины, сидевшие так тихо, словно их парализовало, и человек в форме железнодорожника, который левой загорелой рукой поддерживал забинтованную правую. Все они уставились на Кэрол. Она скромно присела на жесткий стул, чувствуя себя здесь лишней и смущаясь своего легкомысленного вида.

...don't come if you don't want to, or if you're going to feel out of place. (J. O'Hara, ‘Elizabeth Appleton’, ch. II) — Если не хочется или боитесь, что будут все чужие, не приходите на эту вечеринку.
