impossible to explain or understand
So strange or unclear that you cannot explain or understand it.
نمط الاستخدام:
[something] is inexplicable (to [someone])
غلطة شائعة:
Learners sometimes confuse "inexplicable" with "unexplained." "Inexplicable" describes something that cannot be explained, often even if you try, while "unexplained" can simply mean no explanation has been given yet. Learners may also omit the preposition and say *"it is inexplicable me"* instead of the correct *"it is inexplicable to me."*
