Meaning
例如，如果一個平時很準時的人今天遲到了，你可以說：「It's not like you to be late」。這句話的意思是「遲到不是你平常的風格」，暗示對方的行為異於尋常，可能讓人感到驚訝或擔心。
這個表達方式不僅可以用來指出異常行為，還可以用來表達對某人的期望。例如，如果某人平常很負責任，但某次卻沒有完成任務，你可以說：「It's not like you to forget your responsibilities」，這樣表達你對他平常的正面評價與期待。
使用這個表達時，通常帶有一點關心的語氣，並非批評，而是指出行為與平常不符，並希望了解原因。Today's Sentences
