Morphology

unmodified = modified (transparent) = un + modify + ed

Formed by adding the negative prefix 'un-' to 'modified' with its ordinary meaning 'not changed'.

Etymology

Unmodified combines the un- part, meaning 'not', with modify, which means 'to change form'. So, unmodified means 'not changed' or left in its original state.
