Morphology

unquestionable = questionable (transparent) = un + question + able

Formed by attaching the negative prefix 'un-' to 'questionable', yielding a clear meaning 'not open to question'.

Etymology

Unquestionable comes from un- 'not', question 'ask', and -able 'able to'. So it literally means 'not able to be asked', which helps you remember it: something unquestionable cannot be doubted and feels certain.
