Morphology

unannotated = annotated (transparent) = un + annotate + ed

The prefix 'un-' productive negation applied to the adjective 'annotated' yields a clear 'not annotated' meaning.

Etymology

The word unannotated begins with un- meaning 'not' and the rest comes from annotate, which comes from the old word nota meaning 'note' or 'mark'. So, unannotated means 'not given notes' or 'without comments', which is why we use it for texts with no explanatory notes.
