What's the difference between imperfection and imperfectness?
Imperfection
Definition:
(a.) The quality or condition of being imperfect; want of perfection; incompleteness; deficiency; fault or blemish.
Example Sentences:
(1) The spin-spin relaxation time T2 may be estimated using multiecho pulse sequences, but the accuracy of the estimate is dependent on the fidelity of the spin-echo amplitudes, which may be severely compromised by rf pulse and static field imperfections.
(2) Politicians must make decisions every day with imperfect knowledge, knowing that many of those choices may turn out to be ineffective.
(3) The quality of reduction is often imperfect and the techniques of surgical repair are very difficult and time consuming.
(4) An important source of failure in markets and justification for government intervention in the health sector of LDCs is imperfect information.
(5) It is suggested that absence or imperfect function of this reductase enzyme is the primary lesion in this disease.
(6) Dual aspects, crystallite size and lattice imperfection related to the crystallinity were analyzed by the process of Variance and Fourier analysis based on the X-ray diffraction line profiles.
(7) The membranous portion of the interventricular septum was thickened, and the aortic valve was thickened and had imperfect coaptation.
(8) Results reveal that while dental markets are imperfectly competitive, it is unclear whether prices exceed competitive levels.
(9) What we are witnessing is the collision of two imperfect storms: the Conservative party’s turmoil over the future of taxation, and the transformation of the economy.
(10) The mechanisms underlying the initial interaction between killer cell and target and the subsequent lytic event are imperfectly understood.
(11) It is shown that imperfect correlations between proficiency and preference measures, and J-shaped distributions of preference, can be predicted by such a model.
(12) We conclude that the liver may be viewed as an imperfectly mixed compartment with regard to the availability of the metabolite which is generated from a precursor.
(13) The theory of imperfect recanalization, the theory of vascular insufficiency, and studies which have been performed to validate each of these theories were reviewed.
(14) The results of this investigation indicate that the posttransplanted deterioration of metabolic levels were possibly caused by the imperfect oxygenation due to cellular edema after blood reflow.
(15) It would be easy to efficiently cut him down with the word “rapist”, particularly when I will not face any reprimands for my own imperfect behaviour during the relationship.
(16) "We had been doing exactly as any responsible, professional journalist would – recording and trying to make sense of the unfolding events with all the accuracy, fairness and balance that our imperfect trade demands."
(17) To stand virtuously in the grandstand looking down upon a world whose best efforts in inevitably imperfect times can never match your own exalted standards is a definition of irrelevance, not virtue.
(18) Les Misérables is a game with destiny: it dramatises the gap between the imperfections of human judgments, and the perfect patterns of the infinite.
(19) Association of radiological changes with imperfection of lungs' ventilating reserve of restrictive type was found in one man who was removed from the work in exposure to beryllium, as a person with an increased risk of falling ill.
(20) Reviewing it for the Guardian , Gillian Slovo described it as "a pained examination of the difficulties posed by a freedom that was won by imperfect human beings."
