Morphology
indivisibly = indivisible (semi-transparent) = in + divis + ible + ly
The adverb is formed in the regular way from the adjective 'indivisible' by adding '-ly', so the meaning is directly predictable.
Etymology
The word indivisibly comes from the prefix in- meaning 'not' and divisible meaning 'able to be divided', the same root you see in divide. So, indivisibly means 'not able to be divided' or joined so closely it cannot be separated.
