Morphology

gassy = gas (transparent) = gas + y

Clear and regular adjectival formation from the noun 'gas' with '-y' meaning 'characterized by or full of gas'.

Etymology

Gassy comes from gas, a common word for invisible air or the bubbles that make you burp, and the ending -y means 'full of'. So a gassy person or baby is 'full of gas' in the stomach and often feels uncomfortable or needs to burp.
