Morphology
unnumberable = numberable (transparent) = un + number + able
Formed by adding the productive prefix 'un-' to 'numberable', meaning 'not able to be numbered', which is directly interpretable.
Etymology
Unnumberable breaks into un- 'not', number 'a count', and -able 'able to be'. So it literally means 'not able to be counted', which is why we use it for things that are too many or 'countless'.
