the quality of great physical beauty
The quality of being very beautiful to look at.
Vzorec užití:
the loveliness of [something]
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "loveliness" in places where native speakers would more naturally say "beauty" (e.g., "the beauty of the city" is more common than "the loveliness of the city"). Also, some mix up the noun "loveliness" with the adjective "lovely": we say "her loveliness" (noun) but "she is lovely" (adjective), not *"she is loveliness".

gentle charm or pleasant nature
A warm, gentle, and kind quality in a person or in the feeling of a place or moment.
Vzorec užití:
the loveliness of [someone/something]'s [character/voice/manner]
Častá chyba:
Learners may think "loveliness" always describes physical beauty. In this sense, it describes a kind, warm, or gentle quality, especially in someone’s character or in the feeling of a situation, so using it only for looks would miss this emotional meaning.
Synonyma
charm (Highlights a pleasing or attractive quality that makes people like someone or something; slightly broader and more common than this sense of "loveliness".)
|
sweetness (Emphasizes gentle, kind behavior or nature; often more informal and focused on personality.)
|
grace (Suggests elegance and ease in behavior or manner, often with a calm, moral, or spiritual tone.)
Antonyma
harshness (Opposite in describing a hard, unkind, or unpleasant quality in behavior or atmosphere.)
|
cruelty (Opposite in terms of moral quality, describing deliberately unkind or hurtful behavior.)
