unheard of

We don’t have any hejab for women in my country. It’s unheard of.

Several decades ago exsisting of social networks was unheard of. Technical development extremelly changed the trend that nowadays it’s unheard of not to use Facebook, Tweeter, etc.

It’s considered that people who don’t use social nets are weird groups of individuals.

unprecedented, unknown, out of the ordinary

I once saw a woman sing without opening her mouth. This was unheard of until then.

In india they were many things which were unheard of like  love marriges, woman empowerment and lot more. i think everything is getting better and better with every changing generation except health as lot of people have become dependent on technology and not willing to move or work physically which was unheard of 20 30 yers back.

This year, we went trick or treating. Every child was dressed up  carrying basket full of candies, so happy and excited.  It was raining, but it didn’t spoil the celebration, but some people did. They put up the big signs on their houses saying “We don’t celebrate the holiday of devil”. That’s was unheard of! I’ve nevever seen anything like that.

Many decades ago, to harvest the potatoes, we needed a lot of men working with the hoes or hired hands, very hard job and so expensive.. .. nowadays that job is more easy , cheap and less strenuous than in the past ,  using agricultural machines,like tractors,etc..

Now I can produce professional sounding song in my bedroom, in the past it was unheard of to make professional records at home. Powerfull computers changed everything

Undoubtedly we are living in a global world. You mention that in Belarus people celebrate Halloween and Valentine`s day .  The same is happening in my country , these celebrations that were unheard of  in our culture, are   catching on among  our youth.   Some people complain that we should not imitate all that come from the north   ( read the US ) .

Twenty years ago such celebrations like Halloween, Valentine’s Day were unheard of in my country but nowadays these celebrations became popula here.

Several years ago the possibility of the shipping out from  websites to my country was also unheard of . Today it is a fantastically convinient way of shopping. Many people subscribe everyday to this method of purchasing.
