Morphology
perfectivity = perfective (semi-transparent) = perfect + ive + ity
Morphologically formed from 'perfective' + -ity, but this philosophical sense overlaps with the more usual noun 'perfection', so learners may not reliably infer this specialized use from the parts alone.
Etymology
The word perfectivity comes from perfect ('complete' or 'without fault') and the ending -ity ('the state of'). So it describes the 'state of' being perfect or complete in a formal or philosophical sense.
