plentifulness singular

Morphology

plentifulness = plentiful (transparent) = plenty + ful + ness

Formed by a standard noun-forming suffix '-ness' from the adjective 'plentiful', a regular and recognisable derivation.

Etymology

Plentifulness comes from the common word plenty, which itself comes from an old Latin word plenus meaning 'full'. The parts -ful mean 'full of' and -ness makes a 'state', so plentifulness is the 'state of being full' or having a large supply, which is why it means 'abundance'.
