Godful

/ˈɡɑdfəl/ adjective

Definition

Full of or characterized by divinity; pious, devout, or religious in nature.

Etymology

Compound of 'god' and '-ful,' the Old English suffix meaning 'full of.' A rarely used but grammatically logical adjective formation in religious contexts.

Kelly Says

This word is so uncommon that most dictionaries don't even include it, but it's perfectly logical in English—we can say 'godful' the same way we say 'harmful,' 'joyful,' or 'fearful'!
