How to use "Unintentional" in context?
Most people don't realize how often they unknowingly do something that hurts or embarrasses someone else. This is called accidental behavior. Accidental behavior happens when we do something without intending to, and it can be embarrassing, frustrating, or even hurtful.
Here are five common examples of unintentional behavior:
1.Running into someone in the hall
This is a common situation where unintentional behavior can happen. We might unintentionally run into someone because we were hurrying, or we might not see the person and run into them. Either way, the other person might wind up feeling embarrassed or even hurt.
