Etymology of SHAMEFACEDNESSES

The word "shamefacednesses" is a combination of three components: "shame", "faced", and the plural suffix "-nesses".

1. "Shame" derives from the Old English word "scaamu", meaning disgrace, ignominy, or a feeling of guilt or embarrassment. The term has origins in various Germanic languages.

2. "Faced" is the past participle form of the verb "face". In this context, "faced" is used to describe the act of showing one's face or countenance. It represents the expression or outward appearance of shame.

3. The suffix "-ness" is appended to "shamefaced" to form the abstract noun "shamefacedness". "-ness" is a common suffix in English, used to create an abstract noun from adjectives, indicating a state, quality, or condition.
