Hear it in real life
You seem quiet today.
I feel a bit out of sorts, but I'll be fine.
I was a little out of sorts after sleeping badly.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: I've felt a bit out sort since I got back.
Say: I've felt a bit out of sorts since I got back.
The expression always includes “of” and the plural noun “sorts.”
