Morphology

kindled = kindle (transparent) = kindle + ed

Regular past-participle/adjectival formation from the verb 'kindle' meaning 'set alight', so the meaning is directly derived.

Etymology

Kindled comes from the old verb kindle, from an old Norse word kynda meaning 'to set fire'. Think of kindling, the small sticks you use to start a flame, and you will remember that kindled means 'set alight' or 'made to burn'.
