Definition
The quality or state of being addlepated; habitual confusion or foolishness.
Etymology
Noun form of 'addlepated' plus the suffix '-ness,' creating an abstract noun for the condition of being addlepated.
Kelly Says
This word shows how English happily stacks suffixes—you can keep adding layers to describe increasingly specific states of confusion, making it both ridiculous and precise.
