electiveness

/ɪˈɫɛktɪvnəs/ noun

Quality of being elective.

Word Origin From Latin ex- 'out' and legere 'to choose, gather' — elective means 'chosen out.' The breakdown e+lect+ive+ness: e- (out), lect (choose), -ive (tending to), -ness. The root legere gives us select, collect, intellect (choose between), elegant (chosen with care), and legend (things to be read/selected). So electiveness is the quality of being chosen or selective, the idea of picking out the best.
