使用する際の注意点

Whereas the noun chronicity corresponds to the adjective chronic, and the noun felicity corresponds to the adjective felicitous, a dedicated adjective to correspond with the noun synchronicity could not well be either synchronic or synchronous, because those words already had other well-established senses. The next natural back-formation candidate after those words was synchronicitous (analogous to felicity/felicitous), and it is therefore unsurprising that that adjective is long since attested.
