Morphology
intrapsychically = intrapsychic (semi-transparent) = intra + psych + ally
Formed by adding the adverbial suffix to 'intrapsychic'; the composition intra- + psychic is clear but the term is technical and 'psychic' can be ambiguous (paranormal vs. mental), which may confuse learners.
Etymology
The word intrapsychically comes from the parts intra- meaning 'within' and psyche meaning 'mind', the same root as psychology, so it means doing something 'inside the mind'.
