Morphology

connectional = connection (transparent) = connect + ion + al

The adjective is a standard derivation from 'connection' with '-al', clearly meaning 'relating to connections'.

Etymology

Connectional comes from the common verb connect, which means 'join together', and the ending -al, which means 'related to'. So connectional describes something that links or joins parts or systems, like a network or the pathways in the brain.
