Noun

[edit]

uprootedness (uncountable)

  1. The quality of being uprooted.
    • 2008 March 1, James R. Oestreich, “Rhythm in Abundance, With a Spirit of Adventure”, in New York Times[1]:
      Regularity of rhythm came under assault from modernists in the last century, and its frequent absence accounts substantially for a sense of uprootedness and anxiety in their music that is more often attributed to atonal melody or harmony.
