Morphology
innumerous = in + numer + ous
Although it contains the negative prefix 'in-' and a stem related to 'number', learners are likely to misread it as 'not numerous', so the attested meaning 'countless' is not transparently recoverable.
Etymology
The word innumerous comes from the Latin parts in- 'not' and numerus 'number', the same root as the English word number. So innumerous means 'not able to be counted', or simply 'countless'.
