Morphology

undeviatingly = undeviating (transparent) = un + deviate + ing + ly

Formed by adding the adverbial suffix '-ly' to the adjective 'undeviating' (un- + deviating), so the meaning is directly compositional.

Etymology

Undeviatingly is made from un- 'not' and deviate 'turn away', and deviate comes from a root meaning 'way' or 'road'. So to act undeviatingly is to stay on the same 'way' or goal and not turn away, meaning you do something steadily and without change.
