Morphology
effortlessness = effortless (transparent) = effort + less + ness
Formed by adding '-ness' to the adjective 'effortless'; the adjective itself is transparently 'effort' + '-less'.
Etymology
Effortlessness comes from the common word effort, which means 'hard work' or 'trying', plus the ending -less meaning 'without' and -ness meaning 'the quality of something'. So, effortlessness is the 'quality of being without hard work', which is why we use it for actions that seem easy or natural.
