Blueness

/ˈbluːnəs/ noun

Definition

The quality, state, or condition of being blue in color; the degree or intensity of blue coloration.

Etymology

From 'blue' + '-ness' (Old English suffix forming abstract nouns), creating a noun for the abstract quality of blueness itself.

Kelly Says

The word 'blueness' is philosophically interesting because it describes something completely abstract—the philosophers Wittgenstein and others used color words like this to explore how language works.
