Spanish term or phrase: desubicarse / desubicado
Si expresar la opinion es desubicarse, soy el mas desubicado de todos, la cosa es saber expresarlo, y en ello me temo que ni hice mal a nadie.

SIGNIFICA NO SABER UBICARSE EN LA SITUACIÓN EN LA QUE UNO SE ENCUENTRA Y DECIR O HACER ALGO INAPROPIADO.

essere fuori posto
Explanation:
Questa `l'idea: Se dire la mia opinione ed "essere fuori posto", sono il più adeguato. Creo que es la manera en que lo diría, porque no hay una palabra que dé la misma fuersa que desubicado, en general yo la escucho decir así, es sólo otta opción.

Perdón escribí mal la palabra fuerza, se ve que estaba un poco apurada, y también es otra opción. Perdón por los errores y gracias.

ME PARECE LA EXPRESIÓN QUE MEJOR SE ADAPTA AL SENTIDO DEL TÉRMINO. PORQUE NO ES UNA PERSONA DESORIENTADA, AL MENOS EN ESTE CONTEXTO. MUCHAS GRACIAS A TODOS.

esagerare / esagerato


Explanation:
Altra possibilità.
Nel senso che si dice (o si fa) qualcosa considerato "tabú" (o impronunciabile)o assolutamente non consono alla situazione in questione. In italiano si usa molto "Ma che esagerato!" "Sei proprio un esagerato, si tratta solo di...", "Non esagerare, la situazione reale è questa:...".
