Morphology
nonconsecutive = consecutive (transparent) = non + consecutive
The negative prefix 'non-' combined with 'consecutive' yields the straightforward meaning 'not consecutive', which is easily inferable by learners.
Etymology
The word nonconsecutive breaks into non- meaning 'not' and consecutive, which is like the word sequence and means 'following in order'. So nonconsecutive describes things that do not follow one after another but have gaps between them.
