Morphology

enjoyableness = enjoyable (transparent) = enjoy + able + ness

Formed by adding the productive nominalizing suffix '-ness' to the clear adjective 'enjoyable', yielding the quality of being enjoyable.

Etymology

Enjoyableness comes from enjoy (with joy meaning 'pleasure') plus the ending -able ('can be') and -ness ('state' or 'quality'), so it means 'the quality of being enjoyable'.
