Morphology
subsequent = sequent (semi-transparent) = sub + sequ + ent
The word is transparently built with the prefix sub- plus the adjective sequent, but the classical base is less familiar to many learners.
Etymology
The word subsequent comes from Latin parts sub- meaning 'under' and sequi meaning 'to follow'. Think of a sequel to a film that follows the first story, so subsequent means 'coming after' or 'following' something else.
