inobservance

/ɪnəbzˈɜvəns/ noun

Lack of observance.

Word Origin Observe comes from Latin ob- 'over, toward' and servare 'to keep, watch' — literally 'watching over.' Inobservance is the failure to watch over or follow. The same root servare gives us conserve (keep together), preserve (keep beforehand), reserve (keep back), and serve (to be a servant, one who keeps watch).
