Morphology

lightsomeness = lightsome (transparent) = lightsome + ness

Regular nominalization of the adjective 'lightsome' with '-ness', so the noun's meaning is predictable from the adjective.

Etymology

Lightsomeness comes from the everyday word light ('not heavy' or 'bright') plus the ending -some ('tending to') and -ness to make a noun. So it means being 'light' in mood—cheerful and carefree.
