The quality or state of being dishonourable (British spelling); shameful or disgraceful character or conduct.
British English spelling variant of 'dishonorableness,' using 'honour' instead of 'honor.' Both derive from Old French 'honor' via Latin 'honor', with the '-ness' suffix creating an abstract noun.
The British 'honour' spelling preserves the original French spelling, while American 'honor' is simplified—two countries, two spellings, but both condemning the same shameful quality.
