capriciousness has 6 distinct synonyms spread across 2 of its 2 senses. Each sense below keeps its own list, because a synonym belongs to a meaning and not to a word: swapping one sense's substitute into another sense's sentence is how a thesaurus makes writing worse. WordNet records no antonym for it — antonymy is a relation between word forms rather than concepts, so it is deliberately sparse.
Counts are distinct word forms across every sense. A synonym that appears under three senses is counted once here and shown three times below, under each sense it belongs to.
the quality of being guided by sudden unpredictable impulses
the trait of acting unpredictably and more from whim or caprice than from reason or judgment
“I despair at the flightiness and whimsicality of my memory”
Synonyms, antonyms and the broader and narrower relations for capriciousness come from Princeton University’s WordNet. Full sources and licences.
