Somewhat droll; mildly amusing, whimsical, or oddly funny; having qualities of drollery but in a slight degree.
From 'droll' with the suffix '-ish,' which typically creates adjectives meaning 'somewhat' or 'somewhat like' the base word. The suffix softens or makes the quality less intense.
The suffix '-ish' is brilliant for nuance—'drollish' is funnier than 'not droll' but less commitment than fully 'droll,' perfect for describing awkward social humor.
