Jul 12, 2015 at 16:25 | comment | added | Jim | @StoneyB- but I can produce both hypotheticality and hypotheticalness. Ngrams say the former is much more prevalent but it also shows a bump in 1870’s where the opposite appears to be true. I’m on my phone so I didn’t investigate further. | |

Maybe you and I don't have the same google, but in my search I read articles about "The Hypotheticality Continuum in Russian," the "hypotheticality of human action" in philosophy, the "hypotheticality of a resumptive protasis" in Arabic, the "hypotheticality of the apodosis" in English poetry, the hypotheticality inherent in Newton's Law, and many more. I think it's safe to say it's a word. | |
