Morphology

untrammeled = trammeled (transparent) = un + trammel + ed

The adjective is formed by adding the negative prefix 'un-' to 'trammeled', yielding the straightforward meaning 'not restrained'.

Etymology

Untrammeled comes from un- meaning 'not' and trammel, an old word for a net or tool that holds or stops movement. So untrammeled gives the image of something 'not caught' and is used to say something is free and not limited.
