A conjuncture is a coming-together of events or situations, especially when that mix makes trouble, or when it is a delicate moment for a decision. You will almost only see this word in serious writing — history, , news analysis. “At this conjuncture” means “at this particular moment, given everything that is happening at once.” Though actually, in speech people just say at this point or in this situation; conjuncture sounds like a professor’s word, and using it in a chat can feel like showing off. It is not a medical word, and it is not the same as a conjunction in grammar, even though they look like cousins.
情勢、時局（事情湊在一起的關頭；極書面）
