curiosity
/ˌkjʊəɹɪˈɒsɪti/
When referring to the desire to learn, 'curiosity' is usually an uncountable noun (e.g., "She has a lot of curiosity"). When referring to unusual objects, it becomes a countable noun and can be used in the plural form as 'curiosities'. Be aware that while curiosity is generally positive, it can sometimes imply being 'nosy' or prying into other people's private lives.
