Morphology
adipose = adip + ose
Formed from the Latin combining form 'adip-' (fat) plus the suffix '-ose'; these are specialized/learned combining elements not productive or obvious to an average B1 learner, so the meaning is not transparently derived from common English base words.
Etymology
Adipose comes from the old Latin word adeps, meaning 'fat'. So adipose describes parts of the body that are made of or store fat, like the layer under the skin.
