livingness

Morphological NotesFeminine singular absolute noun (HNcfsa); formed with the -וּת (-ûth) suffix, which often creates abstract nouns expressing a state or quality.
Rendering RationaleThe noun חַיּוּת is a feminine singular abstract noun derived from the root חיה (to live). Rendering it as "livingness" preserves the core idea of active life or vitality inherent in the root while reflecting its feminine singular abstract form in Hebrew.
