Morphology
unmeasurable = measurable (transparent) = un + measure + able
The word 'unmeasurable' is transparently derived from 'measurable' with the prefix 'un-' indicating negation.
Etymology
Unmeasurable is made of the part un- meaning 'not' and the part measure meaning 'to find size or amount', like when you use a ruler. So, something unmeasurable is 'not' able to be measured. It is too large or has no clear limits, which is why we use it for huge distances or deep feelings.
