Morphology
atheism = theism (semi-transparent) = a + the + ism
If a learner knows 'theism', the prefix 'a-' signals negation, but this classical pattern is less immediately accessible than ordinary English negation.
Etymology
The word atheism comes from Greek parts: a- meaning 'not' and theos meaning 'god', and it is the opposite of theism ('belief in God'). So, atheism simply means 'not believing in gods'.
