Definition

The quality or state of being frenzied; the condition of wild, uncontrolled activity or emotional state.

Etymology

Created by adding the suffix -ness to the adjective frenzied, a standard English method for converting adjectives into abstract nouns describing qualities or states.

Kelly Says

The -ness suffix is so productive in English that we can add it to almost any adjective to create a noun—'frenziedness' might seem like a mouthful, but it lets us talk about the actual quality of being frenzied as a thing.
