Morphology

hugemongous = huge + humongous (semi-transparent) = huge + mongous

The meaning 'extremely large' is obvious from 'huge' and 'humongous', but the formation is a playful, non‑standard blend rather than a regular derivation.

Etymology

The word hugemongous is a playful blend of huge and humongous, both words that mean 'very large'. A helpful way to remember it is to imagine saying two big words at once, so hugemongous is used informally and often humorously to mean 'extremely large' or 'enormous'.
