Morphology
foresightfulness = foresightful (transparent) = fore + sight + ful + ness
Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ness' to the adjective 'foresightful', which itself clearly derives from 'fore' + 'sight' + '-ful'.
Etymology
The word foresightfulness comes from the parts fore- ('before') and sight ('seeing'), so it is like 'seeing ahead'. That's why it means careful planning and thinking about future problems.
