Etymology of BRITTLENESSES

The word "brittlenesses" is derived from the noun "brittleness", which is formed using the suffix "-ness" to indicate a state or condition. The base word "brittle" comes from the Old English word "brytel", meaning "easily broken" or "fragile". The Old English "brytel" is related to the Old Norse "broti", which means "fragment". Over time, "brittle" evolved to become the adjective describing something that is hard but easily breaks or shatters. When the suffix "-ness" is added, "brittleness" is formed, referring to the state or quality of being brittle or fragile. Similarly, "brittlenesses" is formed by adding the "-ness" suffix to the noun "brittlenesses", indicating multiple instances or examples of brittleness.
