complexness

/ˈkɑmpɫɛksnəs/ noun

The state or quality of being complex.

Word Origin From Latin com- 'together' and plectere 'to weave' — so complex literally means 'woven together'. That's why something complex has many intertwined parts. The same root gives us perplex (thoroughly woven, tangled), complicate (folded together), and explicit (unfolded, clear). The -ness suffix makes it a noun.
