The quality or state of being gummy; the characteristic of possessing gum or gum-like properties; gumminess.
From Latin 'gummi' (gum) plus the abstract noun suffix '-osity,' derived from '-osus' meaning 'full of.' This suffix appears in 'viscosity,' 'porosity,' and 'curiosity.'
The '-osity' suffix often describes measurable physical properties—we measure 'viscosity' of liquids and 'porosity' of rocks, so 'gummosity' would technically describe the degree or extent of gummy characteristics in something.
