to do [something] unexpectedly
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes confuse "unexpectedly" with "suddenly." "Suddenly" focuses mainly on how fast something happens, while "unexpectedly" focuses on the fact that people did not think it would happen. Another common mistake is spelling it incorrectly as *unexpectly* or *unexpectadly*; the correct form is "unexpectedly."
