Morphology

refreshed = refresh (transparent) = re + fresh + ed

This is a standard participial adjective formed from the verb 'refresh' and means made or feeling fresh again.

Etymology

Refreshed is made from re- ('again') and fresh ('new' or 'clean'), so imagine a drink or a short rest that makes you feel 'new again'. So to be refreshed is to have new energy and strength.
