Váratlanak

Váratlanak is a Hungarian word that translates to "unexpected" or "unforeseen" in English. It functions as an adjective, describing a situation, event, or occurrence that deviates from what was anticipated or planned. The word is commonly used in everyday conversation and writing to express surprise or a lack of preparedness.

For example, a sudden change in weather could be described as váratlan, or an unforeseen financial gain might be referred to as váratlan bevétel. The concept of váratlan implies that there was an expectation, however vague, of a different outcome. This expectation can stem from past experiences, logical reasoning, or simply a general sense of how things are "supposed" to proceed.

The word can also be used in a more formal context, such as in news reports or official documents, to denote something that was not part of an original plan or forecast. The emotional connotation associated with váratlan can vary depending on the context. While it can be used neutrally, it often carries a sense of surprise, which can be positive or negative. A váratlan vendég (unexpected guest) might be welcome or unwelcome, depending on the circumstances. Similarly, a váratlan probléma (unexpected problem) would generally be viewed negatively. The versatility of váratlan allows it to describe a wide range of events that fall outside the realm of the predictable.
