Morphology

undivided = divided (transparent) = un + divide + ed

The adjective is formed by prefixing 'un-' to 'divided', and learners can infer 'not divided' from the parts.

Etymology

The word undivided is made of un- 'not' and divide 'to split'. Picture a team standing as one whole piece, not torn by argument, and you see why undivided means completely united and not split by disagreement.
