Morphology
enamored = enamor (transparent) = en + amor + ed
Formed by the verb 'enamor' plus the adjectival/past participle suffix '-ed', so the meaning 'filled with love' is directly predictable.
Etymology
Enamored comes from the parts en- 'in' and amor 'love', a root you also see in Spanish 'amor' and in the English word amorous. So, to be enamored is to be 'in love' or very fond of someone or something.
