Morphology

liquified = liquefy (transparent) = liquefy + ed

Formed from the verb 'liquefy' with a regular adjectival/past-participle '-ed', so the meaning 'made or become liquid' is directly inferable.

Etymology

The word liquified comes from the common word liquid, originally meaning 'flowing' or 'melted'. So to be liquified is to be made to 'flow' like a liquid and turned into liquid form.
