Morphology
sizeableness = sizeable (transparent) = size + able + ness
Formed by adding -ness to 'sizeable' to mean the state of being sizeable; the derivation and meaning are directly predictable.
Etymology
Sizeableness comes from the simple word size and the form sizeable, with the ending -ness meaning 'the quality of something'. So, sizeableness means 'the quality of being large' or 'how big something is', which is why we use it for the largeness of a tree, a stadium, or a company's profit.
