not expected or predicted

Happening without anyone thinking it would happen; a surprise.

استعمال کا انداز: an unexpected [noun]; [something] is unexpected
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes say *"I am unexpected"* when they mean *"I am surprised"*. "Unexpected" describes a thing, event, or situation, not a person’s feeling. Use "surprised" for feelings (e.g., "I am surprised"), and "unexpected" for what causes the feeling (e.g., "an unexpected call"). Learners also confuse "unexpected" with "sudden"; "unexpected" means you did not think it would happen, while "sudden" means it happened very quickly.
ہم معنی الفاظ
surprising (Focuses on the feeling of surprise; often a little stronger in emotional impact than "unexpected".) | unforeseen (More formal and often used in written or official contexts, especially about problems or costs.) | sudden (Emphasizes that something happens very quickly, not that it was unplanned or not expected.)
متضاد الفاظ
expected (Direct opposite; something people thought would happen or planned for.) | predictable (Opposite idea that something happens in a way that is easy to guess or see coming.) | planned (Opposite in terms of preparation; something arranged in advance rather than happening by surprise.)
