Definition
The quality or state of being chiding; the characteristic of expressing gentle disapproval or mild scolding.
Etymology
Formed by adding the noun-forming suffix '-ness' to 'chiding,' which itself comes from the verb 'chide.' This creates an abstract noun describing the quality of reproachful behavior.
Kelly Says
Words ending in '-ness' are some of the most productive word-building tools in English—you can add '-ness' to almost any adjective and create a new word, which is why some '-ness' words like 'chidingness' feel rare but perfectly understandable even if you've never heard them before.
