implausibility

/ɪmplˌɔzᵻbˈɪlᵻɾi/ noun

Lack of plausibility; the quality of being implausible.

Word Origin The noun form of implausible: the quality of not being believable. From Latin plaudere 'to clap' — plausibility is the state of being applaudable, so implausibility is the lack of that. The root also gives us plaudit (an expression of praise) and implode (to burst inward, from the same 'striking' sense).
