Curdiness

/ˈkɜːrdinəs/ noun

Definition

The quality or state of being curdy; the condition of containing curds or resembling curds.

Etymology

Formed from 'curdy' plus the noun-forming suffix '-ness,' which converts adjectives into abstract nouns describing their qualities.

Kelly Says

The suffix '-ness' is one of English's most productive tools—you can attach it to almost any adjective to create a noun describing that quality, which is why English can express abstract ideas so efficiently.
