How to say "oversight" in Japanese

• 見落しみおとしCommon
  nounThe core sense of oversight as something accidentally missed or left unnoticed — an item, detail, or error that escaped attention during checking or review. The lapse is presented neutrally, without assigning blame.
  その計画けいかくには大おおきな見落みおとしがある。↗

  There is big oversight in that plan.
• 手落ちておちCommon
  nounAn oversight or omission viewed as a lapse in one's handling of a task or duty — something done carelessly or left undone — with a shade of fault attaching to the person responsible.
  検査けんさに手落ておちがあったのではないだろうか。↗

  I suspect that there was an oversight in the examination.
• 抜け目ぬけめCommon
  nounA marginal choice for oversight: on its own this noun is seldom what you want, and it really points to imprudence — carelessness that lets things slip past unnoticed — rather than to a specific missed item.
• 落ち度おちどCommon
  nounLeans toward the fault side of oversight: an error or slip in the way a duty was performed, typically pointed out when blame is being apportioned after something has gone wrong.
  私のほうに落ち度おちどはない。↗

  There is no fault on my part.

These words all cover oversight as an unintentional failure, not supervision: 「見落し」 is the thing missed, 「手落ち」 a lapse in one's handling, 「落ち度」 a blameworthy fault or error, and 「抜け目」 a marginal word for imprudence.
