It means that the shape of the object doesn't fit into a small list of predefined shapes (for which simple formulae for volume and surface area are known). Such a list may typically include shapes like spheres, rectangular boxes, cylinders, pyramids, cones, certain sections (cutouts) of the previous ones, etc.

An irregular object is one that is not normal, but I'm assuming that you meant to ask about irregularly shaped objects. Those are objects, like, for example, rocks, whose shapes are not among the basic shapes about which we learn in Geometry, including cubes, cones, cylinders, pyramids, etc.
In geometry an irregular shape is one in which at least one angle, or at least one side, or at least one face is different from the others.

Partition (or divide) the irregular object into summation of regular objects and then calculate the volume.
method usede to figure the volume of an irregular shaped object
I am not positive but i think that a regular shaped object can be measured and an irregular can not Hope this helps :D

I would place it in a container full of liquid after measuring the liquid. I would measure the amount of liquid displaced by the object. That amount is equal to the volume of the irregular object if it is fully submerged in the liquid.
