Morphology
noninstitutionalized = institutionalized (transparent) = non + institution + al + ize + d
Formed by adding the productive negation prefix 'non-' to 'institutionalized', yielding the straightforward meaning 'not institutionalized'.
Etymology
Noninstitutionalized is built from non- meaning 'not', institution meaning 'a place with rules like a hospital, prison, or care home', and -ized meaning 'made or placed'. So, noninstitutionalized describes someone who is 'not placed in an institution' and therefore lives in the community.
