Wordliness 

Not to be confused with wordiness, which is using more words than is necessary.

Wordliness is similar to worldliness. It is the capacity for someone to use a vast plethora of words/phrases in a sophisticated and intelligent manner, usually with far more scope than the average individual.

An individual who is wordly is someone for whom language is both a joy and an adventure. You would describe someone as wordly in the same way that you would describe other individuals as worldly. Again, be careful not to confuse wordly with wordy.
Shakespeare demonstrates far greater wordliness than the average individual; he is unthinkably wordly.

wordness 

A statement encompassing the feeling of the term word, but with a greater degree of emotion. It is used when the the term word itself feels inadequate.
Person A: Why do Western men find themselves in places like Thai brothels or Parisian S&M clubs? Could it be that the modern, media-saturated society has desensitized us into not getting any enjoyment out of the most common of physical expressions? For those who enjoy delving into masochism, don't you think it signifies a sort of regression back to our primitive nature? If so, don't you think this is just a harbinger of further regressions in our daily lives?

Person B: Wordness.
