Plural of alienability; the quality of being capable of being transferred from one owner to another, especially regarding property or land.
From Latin alienabilis (capable of being made alien or transferred) combined with the suffix '-ity' forming nouns of quality. The root alienus means 'foreign' or 'other.'
Property lawyers obsess over alienability—some lands are 'inalienable' (can't be sold), but most modern real estate has total alienability, meaning you can sell it to anyone, which transformed how societies handle wealth.
