Morphology

reformanda = reform (semi-transparent) = reform + anda

The noun sense 'things to be reformed' follows from 'reform' + the nominalizing suffix, but the suffix itself is not productive in everyday English and may be unfamiliar.

Etymology

Reformanda comes from Latin parts re- 'again', formare 'to form', and the ending -anda which means 'things to be ...', like agenda 'things to be done'. So, as a noun reformanda means 'things that need to be reformed' or a list of proposed reforms.
