Hello, pinenut!! Your advice is always helpful for me Surprised
Could you givce me some examples using "It is inconvenient to do something" , and that "it" doesn't refer to "to do something" , for example "There's a lot of geenery, but it is inconvenient to get to work" ?

One of the sample sentences you used in your previous question is what you are looking for.
