Morphology

subperiod = period (transparent) = sub + period

The prefix 'sub-' meaning 'under' or 'smaller/secondary' combines straightforwardly with 'period' to mean a smaller division of time.

Etymology

Subperiod joins sub- meaning 'under' or 'below' with period meaning 'a length of time', the same period you see in periodic. So a subperiod is a smaller part of a longer period, a short time inside a bigger one.
