Morphology
unreconciled = reconciled (transparent) = un + reconcile + ed
The adjective is formed by adding the negating prefix 'un-' to 'reconciled', a regular negation of a participial adjective.
Etymology
Unreconciled starts with un- meaning 'not' and comes from reconcile, which originally meant 'bring together' or 'make friendly', the same root you see in council, a group that brings people together. So unreconciled describes people or things that are 'not' brought into agreement.
