Morphology

limitless = limit (transparent) = limit + less

Standard adjectival formation: 'limit' + '-less' yields 'without limit', which is directly predictable.

Etymology

Limitless breaks into two clear parts: limit means a 'boundary' or 'edge', and the ending -less means 'without', so limitless means 'without a boundary' or 'without end'. That's why we use it to describe something very large or that seems to go on forever.
