Morphology
immeasurable = measurable (transparent) = im + measure + able
The immediate base 'measurable' is clearly 'measure' + '-able', and adding the negative prefix 'im-' yields the expected opposite meaning.
Etymology
Immeasurable starts with in- 'not' and uses the familiar word measure 'to find size', like using a tape measure. So, something immeasurable is 'not able to be measured' because it is too big, deep, or great.
