I too saw disambiguation on Wikipedia and thought it might be an American creation.

I have been using disambiguity for years, evidently incorrectly. I intend to continue using it however as I like it and it sounds pleasing to the ear.

Don’t know about the first, but if you were the only person to have made up the word, I would not have come across your post. I read about “Disambiguation” on Wikipedia and thought, “surely it’s called ‘Disambiguity’? So I looked it up in Google and hit your post. Thanks,

Linguists are cool. One of my regular poscasts is Libua Franca (from abc.net/rn/linguafranca)

Great word by the way.

What a fascinating man the Professor was, I had the briefest of moments with him.

And, to all readers I can confirm that Leisa’s presentation was excellent, and very thought provoking. But hey, I knew it would be!
