inexplicable
adjective
Definition: unable to be explained, understood, or justified
Synonyms: unexplainable, unaccountable, incomprehensible, baffling
Antonyms: explainable, explicable
Tips: Inexplicable is derived from the Latin inexplicabilis, "that which cannot be unfolded or disentangled, very intricate," from in-, "not," with explicabilis, "that which may be explained." Use inexplicable to describe something that is very puzzling and difficult to understand why it happened. It combines both the idea of not understanding or being able to disentangle something, as well as not being able to explain it.
