nobleness（n.）
"高贵的状态或品质"，约于1400年； 参见 noble（形容词）+ -ness。
In application to things nobleness is rather more appropriate than nobility, as the nobleness of architecture or one's English, while nobility is more likely to be applied to persons and their belongings, as nobility of character or of rank; but this distinction is no more than a tendency as yet. [Century Dictionary, 1895]
在应用于事物时， nobleness 比 nobility 更为恰当，如建筑或英语的 nobleness，而 nobility 更可能应用于人及其财产，如品格或地位的 nobility； 但这种区别仅仅是一个趋势而已。[《世纪词典》，1895年]
该词起源时间：约1400年
