Morphology

unfluctuating = fluctuating (transparent) = un + fluctuate + ing

The meaning is a direct negation: 'un-' added to the participial/adjectival 'fluctuating' gives 'not fluctuating' (steady).

Etymology

The word unfluctuating breaks into un- meaning 'not' and fluctu- from an old Latin word for 'wave' or 'flow', much like the everyday word flow. So, because 'fluctuate' is to move up and down like waves, unfluctuating means 'not changing' and staying steady.
