Morphology

synchroneity = synchrony (transparent) = synchron + ity

Built from the noun 'synchrony' with the nominalizing suffix '-ity', so the meaning 'state of occurring at the same time' is directly derived.

Etymology

Synchroneity comes from Greek parts syn- 'together' and chron- 'time', the same parts in synchronize. So it means 'happening at the same time', like a group of people clapping together.
