repetitiousness

/ˌɹɛpəˈtɪʃəsnəs/ noun

The state of being repetitious.

Word Origin From Latin petere 'to seek, strive' — repetition is literally 'seeking again.' Repetitiousness is the quality of being overly repetitive, with the -ous and -ness suffixes piling on. The same root gives us compete (seek together), appetite (a seeking toward), and perpetual (seeking through, unending).
