Morphology

unshattered = shattered (semi-transparent) = un + shatter + ed

The formation is morphologically regular (un- + shattered) but the emotional sense is a metaphorical extension of the physical meaning.

Etymology

Unshattered is made from un- meaning 'not' and shatter meaning 'to break into pieces'. Because people use shatter for feelings that feel 'destroyed', unshattered means a person stayed strong and was not broken inside.
