Morphology

nonpolitically = politically (transparent) = non + political + ly

Formed by adding the negating prefix 'non-' to the adverb 'politically' (political + -ly), so the negated adverbial meaning is directly derived.

Etymology

Nonpolitically begins with non- meaning 'not' and uses political, from politics, which is about 'government and public life'. So, nonpolitically means doing something 'not related to politics', acting without political reasons.
