Morphology
deterministic = determinism (transparent) = determin + istic
Formed from the noun 'determinism' with the familiar adjectival suffix '-istic', so the meaning 'relating to determinism/not random' is directly inferable.
Etymology
Deterministic comes from Latin parts de- meaning 'completely' and terminare meaning 'to set a limit', a root you also see in determine and terminal. So a deterministic process has results that are fixed or set by earlier causes, not random.
