Digestibleness

/dɪˈdʒɛstəbəlnəs/ noun

Definition

The quality or condition of being digestible.

Etymology

From 'digestible' plus '-ness'. This rare noun form allows 'digestibility' to be expressed in an alternative way, though 'digestibility' is the more standard term in modern English.

Kelly Says

English gives us multiple ways to say the same thing—'digestibleness' and 'digestibility' mean almost the same thing, but digestibility won out because it sounds more scientific and formal.
