Morphology
inaccessible = accessible (transparent) = in + access + ible
The prefix 'in-' straightforwardly negates 'accessible', yielding the meaning 'not accessible'.
Etymology
The word inaccessible comes from the parts in- meaning 'not' and access meaning 'a way to reach or enter'. So, inaccessible describes something you cannot reach, enter, get, or easily understand.
