CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORD timely, opportune, propitious, seasonable Some people seem to have a knack for doing or saying the right thing at the right time. A timely act or remark is one that comes at a moment when it is of genuine value or service (a timely interruption ), while an opportune one comes in the nick of time, as if by design, and exactly meets the needs of the occasion (a storm came up at an opportune moment, squelching enthusiasm for the fight ). Seasonable applies to whatever is suited to the season of the year or fits in with the needs of the moment or the character of the occasion (seasonable weather; a seasonable menu for a cold winter day ). Propitious means presenting favorable conditions. In other words, while a warm day in December might not be seasonable, it might very well be propitious for the sailor setting off on a round-the-world cruise.
