Morphology

tirelessness = tireless (transparent) = tire + less + ness

Formed by a standard noun-making suffix '-ness' from the transparent adjective 'tireless'.

Etymology

Tirelessness comes from tire meaning 'become tired', plus -less meaning 'without' and -ness which makes it a quality, just like careless or hopeless. So tirelessness means being 'without tiredness', showing steady energy and the ability to keep going.
