Morphology

spendy = spend (transparent) = spend + y

The adjective is derived by adding the common suffix '-y' to 'spend', producing 'characterized by spending' (a person or thing that involves spending).

Etymology

Spendy comes from the verb spend ('to pay money') plus the ending -y meaning 'full of' or 'liking'. So a spendy person is 'full of spending' — they like to buy things and spend money.
