tremulousness
State of quaking
Tremulousness is the quality of trembling or quivering—a shakiness that may be physical, emotional, or both.
The word often describes voices wavering with age, fear, or strong feeling: There was a tremulousness in her speech that betrayed her anxiety.
It can also characterize anything marked by uncertainty or instability.
