Morphology

undisputable = disputable (transparent) = un + dispute + able

Formed by negating the adjective 'disputable' with the productive prefix 'un-', giving the clear meaning 'not able to be disputed'.

Etymology

Undisputable comes from un- meaning 'not' and dispute meaning 'to argue or question'. So it literally means 'not able to be argued', which explains why it describes something certain or impossible to doubt.
