意思
Indicates that an event or situation is expected or logical.
文化背景
In Portugal, 'Não admira' is often preferred in speech. It carries a sense of 'I told you so' or a resigned acceptance of fate. Brazilians often add the reflexive 'se' (Não é de se estranhar). It sounds slightly more rhythmic and is ubiquitous in Brazilian journalism. In Luanda, the phrase is used in formal administrative contexts to justify logical steps in bureaucracy. Literary figures like Mia Couto use 'estranhar' to play with the boundaries of what is normal and what is magical.
Subjunctive Alert
Always use the subjunctive after 'que'. It's the hallmark of a C1 speaker.
The Brazilian 'Se'
Add 'se' (Não é de se estranhar) to sound more like a local in São Paulo or Rio.
