noi′some·ly adv.noi′some·ness n.Usage Note: People sometimes assume that noisome means "noisy," because the two words sound similar. But in our 2011 survey, 89% of the Usage Panel found the sentence We could barely hear each other with the noisome helicopter overhead to be unacceptable. If you use noisome as a synonym for noisy, there's a good chance that others will misinterpret your words and think you're describing someone or something as being offensive or harmful.Thesaurus| Noun | 1. | noisomeness - the quality of being noxiousnoxiousness, harmfulnessunwholesomeness, morbidness, morbidity - the quality of being unhealthful and generally bad for you |
