The word "guiltlessnesses" is formed by adding the suffix "-ness" to the adjective "guiltless". The etymology of "guiltless" can be traced back to the Old English word "gyltlease", which is a combination of "gylt" (meaning "guilt") and "leas" (meaning "without"). Over time, "gyltlease" evolved into "giltless" in Middle English, and eventually became "guiltless" in Modern English. The addition of the suffix "-ness" forms a noun from the adjective, resulting in "guiltlessnesses", which denotes the state or condition of being guiltless.
