今日はふたつの「いがい」についてお話しします。
「この映画は意外に面白かった」
みなさんはこの「意外」の意味がわかりますか？
この「意外」は「想像していたことと違う」時に使います。つまり面白くないと思っていた映画が実は面白かったという意味です。

次の文はもう一つの「以外」を使った文です。
「私は仕事以外のことには興味がない」この文の意味はわかりますか？「私は仕事にだけ興味がある。他のことには興味がない。」ということです。
また、「私は日本語以外話せません」と言うと、「私は日本語だけ話せます。他の言語は話せません。」という意味です。

最後に、最近起こった意外だったエピソードをお話します。どちらの意味か考えて聞いてください。

私は先日ギリシャに旅行に行きました。ドイツの田舎にある小さな空港からのフライトだったので、小さな飛行機を使うのかなと思っていたら、意外に大きな飛行機だったのでびっくりしました。

このふたつの「いがい」はどちらもよく使うので正確に使えるようになるまで練習しましょう！

意外：surprisingly
以外：except for, apart from~
想像する：そうぞうする　imagine
つまり：to sum up
興味がある：きょうみがある　I’m interested in
ギリシャ：greece

Nihongo Short Story by Noriko

いがい-Today’s Word 

A black sports car steadily drives down a highway towards a shipping dock somewhere on the coast of Morocco. Inside, five fruits are silent, quietly going over the plan in each of their minds. In the passenger seat is a reddening aged triangle apple named Johannesburg. His hands are stiff, the sign of an experienced carpenter, and his eyes are tired, the sign of 

“I hope this works,” says the driver, a fresh pear. “It’s our last chance to save grandma.”

Johannesburg, who had his attention fixed on the twinkling moonlight, sniffs and rubs his nose. “Trust in the plan, Pear.”

“What if the ship is empty and we risk our lives for nothing?” exclaims Pear.

A voice from the back seat speaks up. “ I trust my source like I trust my own mother.”

“No one doubts you, Grape,” says Johannesburg. “Pear is nervous—that’s all.”

It was six months ago when Johannesburg received a call from Japan. It was Pear, his brother-in-law, informing him that their grandmother, a sweet and kind raisin, had contracted an unknown virus. The aged apple tried not to panic, but became haunted by the news. A few weeks later, his worst nightmare came true. Their dear raisin grandmother had been diagnosed with the corona virus and had been reacting severely to it. It was from then on that Johannesburg started experiencing sleep difficulties: waking up screaming, tossing and turning in bed, unable to fall asleep. He also stopped eating, unable to stomach anything but dry, plain oats.

Feeling hopeless, Johannesburg had practically given up, surrendering to his sleepless nights, stomach knots and growing depression. Then, late one night, he received a call from Grape, his long-time friend. A trusted source had informed him that a large shipment of gold was scheduled to arrive in one week’s time at Port Morocco. Grape proposed a four-man robbery, saying they could split the gold equally amongst the associates.
