偏離的是「程度」
最常見的用法:緊貼在一個形容詞前面,把那個性質的量往上推,並且暗示「跟平常比」。
more than usual · r · A2
more than usual — used before words like high, large, quiet, or cold to say the amount or feeling is stronger than normal.
異常地;特別
Think of a line drawn at whatever counts as normal — the usual price, the usual temperature, the usual behaviour of this person. `unusually` is the speaker pointing at that line and saying: this one is off it. What sits off the line can be an amount (`unusually cold for May`) or a whole event (`Unusually, the shop was closed`). Either way the word is doing the same job — it quietly reminds you that a normal exists, and marks this case as away from it.

偏離的是「這件事」
同一條線,但這次被標記的不是某個性質的量,而是整件事發生了本身。位置也跟著換:從形容詞前面移到句子最前面,管的範圍就從一個詞擴大到一整句。
surprisingly, not typical · r · B1
used to say that something is not what usually happens, often at the start of a sentence.
難得地;不尋常地
