Morphology

easiness = easy (semi-transparent) = easy + ness

Formed from 'easy' + '-ness', but the sense 'tranquility' requires a shift from 'not difficult' to an emotional state, which may not be obvious to all learners.

Etymology

Easiness comes from ease, a word that can mean 'relief' or 'freedom from worry', together with the ending -ness for 'state'. So in this sense, easiness refers to a calm, relaxed feeling without tension.
