Morphology

carpeted = carpet (transparent) = carpet + ed

The adjective arises from the past participle of the verb 'carpet' meaning 'covered with carpet', which is directly inferable.

Etymology

The word carpeted comes from carpet, an old word for a cloth you would 'spread' over a floor or table, like a blanket. So a room that is carpeted is simply 'covered with carpet', which makes it warmer and softer under your feet.
