Gloomings

/ˈɡluːmɪŋz/ noun

Definition

Plural of 'glooming'; instances or periods of becoming dark or gloomy.

Etymology

The plural of the gerund/noun 'glooming,' treating the action or state of becoming gloomy as a countable phenomenon with multiple instances.

Kelly Says

Converting verbs to gerunds (the '-ing' form used as a noun) is a uniquely flexible feature of English—it lets us discuss actions and processes as if they were objects we could count.
