Sweetness
Tender spoken endearment
Sweetness is the quality of tasting sweet—the sensation produced by sugar, honey, or similar substances.
The word extends to pleasant sensory experiences generally: the sweetness of a melody, the sweetness of fresh air.
Figuratively, sweetness describes gentle kindness or affection: There was a genuine sweetness about her.
As a term of address, sweetness is affectionate: Hey, sweetness, how was your day?
