Morphology

unknowingness = unknowing (transparent) = un + know + ing + ness

Standard noun formation from the adjective 'unknowing' indicating the state or quality of being unknowing.

Etymology

Unknowingness is made of three simple parts: un- meaning 'not', know meaning 'to be aware', and -ness which turns a word into a 'state'. So unknowingness is the 'state of not knowing', which is why it describes being unaware of something.
