A rare or archaic noun form meaning the quality or state of being emphatical (emphatic); forceful expression or manner.
From emphatical + -ness (quality marker), creating a doubly affixed word. This construction was more common in Early Modern English but became unnecessarily complex as simpler alternatives emerged.
English speakers sometimes stack affixes like building blocks (emphatical + ness), but language naturally prunes away redundant forms—we prefer 'emphasis' to 'emphaticalness' today.
