Definitions

  1. with little or no preparation or forethought

Word origin

From Late Latin extemporāneus, from Latin ex tempore (“impromptu”).

Used in a sentence

  • “Who the devil is there in Ramilly County,” muttered Amory aloud, “who would deliver Verlaine in an extemporaneous tune to a soaking haystack?”
  • The lovely words of a prepared speech, however, cannot erase extemporaneous words and deeds, thousands of them, that have run contrary to those aspirations.
