Morphology

hyperintelligence = intelligence (transparent) = hyper + intelligence

The word is a straightforward prefixation of 'hyper-' to 'intelligence', meaning an extremely high degree of intelligence.

Etymology

The word hyperintelligence is made of the parts hyper- meaning 'over' or 'beyond' and intelligence meaning 'understanding' or 'knowledge'. So hyperintelligence means 'beyond normal understanding', which is why it describes a very high level of intelligence.
