Accommodableness

/əˈkɒmədeɪtəbəlnəs/ noun

Definition

The quality or state of being accommodable; the capacity to be accommodated or adjusted.

Etymology

From accommodable plus the suffix -ness, forming an abstract noun. This creates a noun from an already-awkward adjective, compounding the unnaturalness.

Kelly Says

This is a word-formation train wreck: take 'accommodate,' add '-able,' then add '-ness' to create a triple-layered word that no English speaker would ever use in conversation or writing.
