What is the noun form of subliminal?

Subliminalness? Subliminality? My husband wants to know :wink:

There’s not one, tell him to create one.

Sublime? A thing that sublimes/sublimates is called a sublimer.

I will tell him.

I’ve seen “subliminal” used as a noun, usually plural. From Deathwatch: “Your subliminals aren’t working right. I can hear them.”

“Subliminal message” is probably the most common way to refer to the concept.

“Stare into the subliminal, for as long as you can.” -They Might Be Giants

Sublimation?

subliminality?

Would I be booed terribly for observing that this thread is rapidly moving from the subliminal towards the ridiculous? :wink:

There is precedent with liminality. I wouldn’t be surprised to find citations for “subliminality” for what you seem to be referring to - the quality of being subliminal.

Sublimity?
