awarenesses
- 1Plural of awareness.
The workshop fostered cultural and environmental awarenesses among the staff.
These reforms grew out of new public awarenesses about safety in the workplace.
Note
A plural that cuts against the grain: awareness is usually uncountable, so adding -es turns a state of mind into separate kinds of it, with cultural awareness and environmental awareness counted as two. Outside writing that needs to sort those kinds apart, the singular is the safer choice: staff gain awareness of risks, not awarenesses. A phrase like forms of awareness carries the same meaning less awkwardly.
