Morphology

attitudinal = attitude (semi-transparent) = attitude + al

The word clearly relates to 'attitude' plus the adjective-forming suffix '-al', but the spelling and historical stem shape make the relation slightly less straightforward.

Etymology

Attitudinal comes from attitude, which originally meant a body's 'posture' or 'pose'. So, attitudinal means 'relating to attitudes', like the views or feelings people hold.
