Could somebody tell me, what is the positive of the word "Abyss" ? As I know, abyss means an infinite depth or abode of evils, Hell. So isn't there any word which will mean the same as infinite depth or void but without pointing towards the negativity of Hell ?
The context in which I want to use this word is related to human emotion. I want to personify this word. I want a word with a meaning parallel to that of abyss but it should not have a negative connotation. You can say that I want to show the void or depth of a person but in one word to do all this.
Best Answer
Yes: abyss, as in "abyssal depths" of the ocean. That's neutral and simply means "very very deep".
The infinite negativity of Hell is the Abyss with a capital A and (generally) the definite article.
