Morphology

prepackaging = prepackage (semi-transparent) = pre + package + ing

The immediate base 'prepackage' is a regular verb formed by pre- + package, and adding -ing yields the noun; the formation is clear and regular.

Etymology

The word prepackaging comes from pre- meaning 'before' and packaging from pack meaning 'to put into a package'. A helpful image is wrapping a gift before you show it to someone to make them like it, so prepackaging means preparing or dressing an idea in advance to make it more attractive or acceptable.
