Morphology

univocality = univocal (semi-transparent) = uni + vocal + ity

Formation from adjective to noun is regular and predictable via '-ity'.

Etymology

Univocality comes from uni- 'one' and vocal 'voice', so it paints the picture of everyone speaking with 'one voice'. That's why univocality can mean complete agreement or a single clear opinion among a group of people.
