oddly enough

Usage Note

Curiosamente functions as a sentence adverb to flag something surprising or counterintuitive, much like English 'curiously' or 'interestingly'. It is common in journalistic and academic writing but also in speech. It does not mean 'in a nosy way' — use con curiosidad for that nuance.

Examples

"Curiosamente, los dos llegaron al mismo tiempo."

Natural Translation

Curiously, the two arrived at the same time.
