Incommode

Incommode: Incommode means inconvenient. Incommode shares its etymology with the similarly spelled and variously defined: accommodation, commodity, commode, and accommodate. The common thread is the Latin for convenient or suitable.
In fact no little girl who finds herself bleeding from an organ which she didn't know she had until it began to incommode her feels that nature is a triumph of design and that whatever is, is right.
