Haste means doing something in a hurry, faster than is careful or comfortable. You'll often meet it in the phrase 'in haste' — done quickly, without enough thought — and in the well-known saying 'haste makes waste', meaning if you rush too much, you end up making mistakes that cost you more time in the end.
匆忙;in haste 匆忙地;haste makes waste 欲速則不達
