pervasiveness

/pɝˈveɪsɪvnɪs/ noun C2 ✓

The state or quality of being present in all parts of a particular thing or place.

Word Origin Just like 'pervasively,' this comes from Latin 'pervadere' (to go through). 'Pervasiveness' is the noun form — the quality of being pervasive, of spreading everywhere. The root 'vadere' also gives us 'invade' and 'evade.' The suffix -ness turns the adjective into a noun.
