Etymology: "Copiousnesses" is simply the plural of "copiousness," which describes the quality of being copious, or abundant. The base word "copious" came into English from Latin "copiosus," meaning well supplied or plentiful, itself built on "copia," abundance. The ending "-ness" is the common English suffix that turns an adjective into a noun naming a quality, so "copiousness" is literally "the state of being copious." Writers who pluralize it are treating abundance as a set of separate instances, so the plural means several distinct large quantities of something.
