☆ sadness 　悲しさ
============================
When we add the suffix “-ness” to an adjective, it forms a noun which talks about a state or quality. In other words, “sadness” is the state of being “sad”. Kindness is the quality of being kind.
Do you know any other words using the “-ness” suffix? Here are some often used ones:
happy – happiness
fresh – freshness
serious – seriousness
crazy – craziness
careless – carelessness
great – greatness
cheerful – cheerfulness
Know any others?
