inconsolability

/ɪŋkənsˌoʊləbˈɪlᵻɾi/ noun

The condition of being inconsolable.

Word Origin Inconsolability comes from inconsolable, which is from Latin 'in-' (not) + 'consolari' (to comfort thoroughly). The root is 'solari' meaning 'to comfort.' So it's the state of being unable to be comforted. The same root gives us console, solace, and disconsolate.
