Morphology
amorphousness = amorphous (semi-transparent) = a + morph + ous + ness
Standard noun formation from the adjective 'amorphous' using the productive suffix '-ness'.
Etymology
Amorphousness comes from Greek parts a- meaning 'not' and morph meaning 'form' or 'shape', and you can think of morph like the English word 'form'. So amorphousness is the quality of 'not having a clear shape or structure', which is why we use it for things that are vague or shapeless.
