Morphology
quality = qual + ity
Although formed with the productive suffix '-ity', the root 'qual-' is not a standalone English word, so learners cannot derive the meaning from familiar English base words.
Etymology
Quality comes from the old Latin root qualis, which means 'of what kind'. So a quality is a feature or trait that shows what kind someone or something is, like curiosity or kindness.
