Morphology

agelessly = ageless (transparent) = age + less + ly

Formed by clear, productive suffixation: 'age' + '-less' creates 'ageless', then '-ly' forms the adverb, so the meaning is directly derived from the components.

Etymology

The word agelessly comes from the simple word age and the ending -less, where -less means 'without'. So agelessly means 'without age', or in a way that does not show age or the effects of time.
