It just says that something happened occasionally but not frequently.

So "I've had the odd word with him over the years" means you have spoken to him on occasion, but not very often and also probably not about anything significant.

All the sentences I can think of are pretty similar to the one you have.

"I've had the odd conversation with him on occasion but nothing substantial."

"We've had the odd meeting in the elevator, but that's about it."

Note: You have to use "the odd _______"
If you say "an odd _________" it has an entirely different meaning.
It means the meeting, conversation [or whatever] was strange.

If a tv show or something else is a "staple" it has a similar meaning where it's like so important that it's consider something you need all the time. a basic need. fundamental.

"word for word" means reciting a passage exactly

So, in your sentence "word for word" is the correct choice.

A: "What does this word mean?" is proper English.

"What means this word?" sounds unnatural.

A: Only "where you are supposed to write a word" makes sense but it's incomplete. The complete phrase could be "Where you are supposed to write a word, you can leave it blank." or "Leave a blank where you are supposed to write a word."

A: Anything more than one is a plural. Since +1 is more than 1, it's a plural so you need to add an "s" and make it "words" instead of"word".

A: Do you mean 'whosoever'? 'whosoever' is a very old form of 'whoever', you will almost never hear it in normal conversation anymore. 'whatsoever' is a very old form of 'whatever', you will hear it in a few common phrases:
A: "Do you know what's happening?"
B: "I have no idea whatsoever." [this simply adds emphasis to "I have no idea.", you could substitute 'at all', but 'whatsoever' just gives the sentence a better rhythm.]
A: "Do you want to hear the new rules?"
B: "I'm not interested in any rules whatsoever." [again, it simply adds emphasis to '... any rules'. Here, '.... any rules at all." sounds fine.
But in common speech, we now use the word 'whatever':
"I'm happy to do whatever you want to do."

'whosoever' is almost never used in conversation, it has been replaced by 'whoever':
"Whoever is the last person to leave, please turn out the lights."

I hope this makes sense, most English speakers have never said 'whosoever' in their lives!
