Morphology

unfogged = fogged (transparent) = un + fog + fogged + ed

Formed by adding the negation 'un-' to the adjective 'fogged'; meaning is the straightforward negation 'not fogged'.

Etymology

Unfogged comes from the prefix un- meaning 'not' and the word fog, the thick cloud of tiny water drops that hides things. So unfogged means 'not covered by fog' or 'made clear', like a window or a view that has stopped being foggy.
