Morphology
unconverged = converged (transparent) = un + converge + ed
Formed by negating the participial/adjectival 'converged' with the productive prefix 'un-', giving the straightforward opposite meaning.
Etymology
The word unconverged begins with un- meaning 'not' and uses converge, which means 'come together', so imagine two lines or groups that never meet and stay apart. That's why unconverged describes things that have not come together.
