Morphology
glamazonian + trait
The noun 'trait' is transparent, but the modifier 'glamazonian' is a creative nonce blend (glamorous + Amazonian) not listed in dictionaries; its meaning (‘glamorous and powerful/tall like an Amazon’) is partly inferable if a learner recognises both 'glamorous' and the cultural sense of 'Amazon/Amazonian'. Because it relies on morphological guessing and cultural knowledge rather than a regular compositional pattern, the expression is only partially predictable to a B1 learner.
Etymology
Glamazonian traits comes from mixing glamorous and Amazonian, so picture a stylish warrior woman who is both beautiful and strong. That's why it means 'characteristics that combine beauty and power'.
