Etymology of UNWORTHINESSES

The word "unworthinesses" is derived from the base word "unworthy" with the addition of the suffix "-nesses".

The term "unworthy" comes from the Middle English word "unworthi", which was formed by combining the prefix "un-" (meaning "not" or "lack of") with the word "worthy", indicating lack of value or deservingness. "Worthy" itself can be traced back to the Old English word "weorþ", meaning "having value" or "deserving".

The suffix "-nesses" is added to "unworthy" to form "unworthinesses" in order to indicate multiple instances or qualities of being unworthy. The suffix "-ness" itself is a common derivational suffix in English, used to form abstract or generalized nouns from adjectives.
