Morphology
underappreciated = underappreciate (transparent) = under + appreciate + ed
Formed by adding the past-participle/adjectival suffix '-ed' to the verb 'underappreciate', so the adjectival meaning 'not sufficiently appreciated' follows directly.
Etymology
Underappreciated is made from under ('not enough' or 'below') and appreciate ('value' or 'recognize'), so it gives a simple image of someone being 'valued below' what they deserve. That's why when a person or thing is underappreciated, people do not give it the praise or recognition it should.
