Morphology
transvestite = transvest (opaque) = trans + vest + ite
The word is built from 'transvest' + 'ite', but the meaning involves a cultural and social concept not directly derivable from the components.
Etymology
Transvestite comes from the parts trans- meaning 'across' and vestire meaning 'to dress', so it originally meant someone who dresses 'across' the usual ideas of gender. Today the term is often seen as old-fashioned or offensive, and many people prefer the word 'cross-dresser' or other words people use for themselves instead.
