Morphology

unconcentrated = concentrated (transparent) = un + concentrate + ed

Formed by the productive negative prefix 'un-' applied to the adjective 'concentrated', so 'not concentrated' is directly inferable.

Etymology

Unconcentrated is made of un- 'not' and concentrated, which comes from the idea of things being pulled to a center or held 'together'. So unconcentrated literally means 'not gathered in one place', which helps remember why it describes a liquid or flavor that is spread out or weaker.
