Morphology

eruptional = eruption (transparent) = erupt + ion + al

The word is transparently built from 'eruption' with the adjective-forming suffix '-al'.

Etymology

Eruptional comes from erupt, from e- 'out' and rupt 'break'. Think of a tooth 'breaking out' through the gum, so eruptional refers to the process of teeth coming through.
