enduringness

/ɛnˈdjʊɹɪŋnəs/ noun

The quality or state of being enduring; lastingness.

Word Origin From Latin durare 'to harden, last,' from durus 'hard' — the idea is that something enduring has been hardened, made tough. Enduringness is the quality of lasting through hardship. The root durus gives us durable, duration, during, obdurate (stubbornly hard), and indurate (to harden). The PIE root *deru- 'firm, solid' also gave us tree and true, so enduringness is like the solidity of wood.
