Morphology

newness = new (transparent) = new + ness

The word is transparently formed by adding the suffix '-ness' to 'new', indicating the state or quality of being new.

Etymology

The word newness is made from the simple word new and the ending -ness, where new means 'recent' or 'not old' and -ness means 'the state or quality' of something. So newness is the 'state of being new', the fresh feeling you notice when something is brand new.
