Expediential

/ˌɛkspɪˈdɛnʃəl/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or based on expedience; suitable or convenient for accomplishing something quickly, especially regardless of principle.

Etymology

Formed in English from 'expedience' plus the suffix -ial (meaning 'relating to' or 'of the nature of'), following the pattern of words like 'essential' and 'residential.'

Kelly Says

This adjective is rarely used, but when it appears in writing, it's often a sneaky way to criticize a decision as being 'convenient rather than correct' without saying so directly.
