Morphology
collaborator = collaborate (transparent) = collaborate + or
The agentive suffix '-or' attaches to the verb 'collaborate' to form 'collaborator', yielding the straightforward meaning 'one who collaborates'.
Etymology
Collaborator comes from the Latin parts com- ('with') and laborare ('to work'), the same root as the English word labor. So a collaborator is someone who 'works with' others, especially on a project or idea.
