Morphology

transvaluation = valuation (transparent) = trans + value + ation

Formed by prefixing 'trans-' to 'valuation'; meaning 'a change in recorded valuation' follows standard compositional logic.

Etymology

Transvaluation combines trans- ('across' or 'change') and valuation (from 'value'). It is like 'resetting' a money number, so it means an official change in the recorded monetary value of a currency or asset.
