erroneousness

/ɛˈɹoʊniəsnəs/ noun

The state of being in error; the quality of being erroneous.

Word Origin Error comes from Latin errare, meaning 'to wander' — so an error is a wandering from the right path. That's why erratic means wandering or unpredictable. Erroneousness is the quality of being full of errors. The same root gives us aberrant (wandering away) and unerring (not wandering).
