inefficiently
Inefficiency refers to a situation or condition in which resources are not used in the best possible way. It implies that a particular process, system, operation or method could be improved to achieve greater output with the same amount of input or to achieve the same output with less input. Inefficiently, therefore, refers to doing something in such a way that wastes time, energy, or materials. It is the opposite of being productive or effective, resulting in unnecessary costs or delays.

Examples of inefficiently in a Sentence

When the criminal law invades the spheres of private morality and social welfare, it exceeds its proper limits at the cost of neglecting its primary tasks. This unwarranted extension is expensive, ineffective, and criminogenic.
