英語で説明してもいいんですか？ やはり Or やっぱり is an expression used when you knew a certain situation would happen. In English it is similar to, "I knew it!" Or "I expected that it would happen!" For example, you go shopping with a friend and they keep looking at a certain shirt, but they didn't buy it. The next day you see them, they are wearing the shirt. You would say, やはり！They bought the shirt. Recent experience I had, I haven't received a call from my ex who is Japanese in a few weeks, but today I had a feeling he would call. Then an hour later, he did call. I said, やっぱり、今日私に電話するのが分かった！
