Morphology

shitty = shit (transparent) = shit + y

The adjective is a straightforward adjectival formation from the vulgar noun 'shit' with the productive suffix '-y' giving 'of or like shit' -> 'very bad'.

Etymology

Shitty comes from the rude word shit, which originally meant 'poo' or 'to poo', and the ending -y means 'full of' or 'like'. So shitty literally suggests 'full of poo', which is a strong, rude way to say something is very bad or of low quality.
