What is a "fluke"?
A fluke is an unexpected or fortunate event that happens by chance, often in a way that seems accidental or unlikely. It can refer to situations where something happens in a way that was not planned or anticipated, but it results in a positive or surprising outcome. Flukes can occur in many different contexts, from sports to everyday life, and typically involve an element of luck or randomness.
