Morphology
qualitative = quality (transparent) = qualit + ative
The adjective is a regular derivation from the noun 'quality' (with the orthographic y->i change) and clearly means 'relating to qualities'.
Etymology
The word qualitative comes from the Latin root qualis, which means 'of what kind', and it shares the same root as the common word quality. So qualitative describes the kind or character of something, not the amount or 'quantity'.
