Surface Forms

Morphology

good-temperedness = good-tempered (transparent) = good + temper + ed + ness

The noun is formed by adding the standard nominalizing suffix '-ness' to the adjective 'good-tempered', which directly means 'having a good temper'.

Etymology

Good-temperedness is made of good and temper, where temper once meant 'to balance' or 'to control' and is still used in words like temperament and the phrase 'lose your temper'. So, good-temperedness means having a balanced, friendly mood that is easy to get along with.
