Morphology
unappeasable = appeasable (transparent) = un + appease + able
Formed by adding the productive negating prefix 'un-' to the adjective 'appeasable' which itself is 'appease' + '-able', so the meaning is directly negative of 'appeasable'.
Etymology
The word unappeasable breaks into un- 'not', appease 'to make peace or calm', and -able 'able'. Think of someone whose anger is like a fire that keeps burning no matter what you do; an unappeasable feeling cannot be calmed or satisfied.
