Morphology

rewardful = reward (transparent) = reward + ful

Formed by the productive suffix '-ful' added to the familiar noun 'reward', meaning 'full of or giving reward'.

Etymology

Rewardful is made from reward (a prize or benefit) and the ending -ful, which means 'full of', so it literally means 'full of reward' or 'giving satisfaction'. That's why something rewardful, like a job or task, gives real benefit or pleasure after hard work.
