Morphology
microscopy = microscope (transparent) = microscope + y
Formed from 'microscope' + '-y' meaning the study/use of microscopes, so learners who know 'microscope' can readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
The word microscopy comes from Greek parts micro- meaning 'small' and -scopy meaning 'to look', the same 'look' in telescope. So, microscopy is the simple idea of 'looking' at very small things with a microscope.
