1. 1

    When something happens inconveniently, it causes problems, often in a small, way: the time is bad, the place is awkward, or the thing you need is not where you need it. Common patterns are “inconveniently timed,” “inconveniently located,” “inconveniently far.” It is not a rude word, but it does complain a little. Though actually, people also use it with a dry smile — “He inconveniently remembered the rule just after we had broken it” — meaning the timing was awkward, not that anyone was cruel. You can say it in careful speech, but with a friend you would more often say “at a bad time” or “in an awkward place.”
