#untimely U-N-T-I-M-E-L-Y

Happening or done at an unsuitable time; a person’s way to disrespect meeting time, date time, or set due date.

1. He broke up when you were deeply in debt and way behind on all your bills and rent? How untimely.
2. You are late again. You’d better stop being so untimely from now on; it’s day one at work tomorrow!

#affiliate A-F-F-I-L-I-A-T-E

Officially and publicly associated to an organization; person or organization officially connecting to a larger one.

1. To stir up patriotism and cancel culture to its interests, the political party rumored all its rivals as affiliated to a powerful, hostile nation.
2. Buying endorsers and affiliates on social media is a common marketing strategy to most businesses.

#cognizant   C-O-G-N-I-Z-A-N-T

Aware, mindful; understanding or realizing something.

1. Despite cognizant of her own pathology and the destructive consequences following each episode, the girl can’t fight it when it strikes .
2. Cognizant of the audience’s confusion and dropping interests, the speaker spinned his lengthy scientific lecture into a nerd-at-the-bar joke.

#provincial P-R-O-V-I-N-C-I-A-L

alien, of outsider’s, coming not from here; of an outdated, conservative opinion or action.

1. A majority of the workforce in the capital has come from provincial cities and towns.
2. Asking guys to get everything she looks for ready so that she nods to a date is so unbelievably provincial and backward.

#deplore D-E-P-L-O-R-E

To say or think that something is really bad; calling something decrepit and dilapidated.

1. All attendants at the joint public funeral deplored the loss of life in the city’s elite crime fighters.
2. Simply having all citizens deplore violence doesn’t throttle it at all, does it?
