Barenesses

/ˈbɛərnəsɪz/ noun

Definition

Plural of bareness; multiple instances or types of the quality of being bare or uncovered.

Etymology

Simple plural of 'bareness,' formed by adding the standard English plural '-es' suffix; maintains the same etymological roots as the singular form.

Kelly Says

It's rare to see 'barenesses' used in practice because 'bareness' is already an abstract noun—when writers do use the plural, they're usually talking about different specific instances of exposure or emptiness.
