Morphology
electromagnetism = electromagnet (semi-transparent) = electro + magnet + ism
The word is transparently built from 'electromagnet' plus '-ism', but the resulting sense is a specialized field of study rather than a simple literal combination.
Etymology
The word electromagnetism starts with electro- (from electron, a Greek word for 'amber', because rubbing amber can make a small electric charge) and adds magnet (a rock that 'pulls' iron), so it literally links electricity and magnets. So, electromagnetism is the force that explains how electricity and magnets work together.
