Morphology

herein = here (semi-transparent) = in + here

The parts 'here' and 'in' are recognizable, but the fixed formal meaning 'in this document or matter' is narrower than a simple literal reading 'in here'. [Postprocessing: moved 'in' from base_words to prefix]

Etymology

The word herein comes from here and in, old words that mean 'in this place' or 'inside this document'. So, herein simply points to something 'in this' or 'inside what is being talked about'.
