uncontrollability

/ʌŋkəntɹˌoʊləbˈɪlᵻɾi/ noun

The quality of being uncontrollable.

Word Origin Un- + control + -abil + -ity. Control comes from Latin contra 'against' + rota 'wheel' — originally a counter-roll, a duplicate register to check against, so control is literally 'against the wheel'. Uncontrollability is the state of not being able to be checked. Related: roll, rotate, contrary, and contradict.
