The condition or quality of feeling wronged, injured, or treated unfairly.
From 'aggrieved' plus the noun-forming suffix '-ness.' Ultimately from Old French 'agrever' and Latin 'gravis' (heavy), suggesting the emotional burden of injustice.
This noun is like 'sadness' or 'happiness' but specifically for injustice—it's the name for that distinct feeling when you believe something unfair has been done to you, making it a useful word for psychologists and philosophers.
