Morphology
synchronization = synchronize (transparent) = synchron + ize + ation
Formed by adding a nominalizing suffix to the verb 'synchronize', so the meaning 'the process/state of synchronizing' is directly predictable.
Etymology
The word synchronization comes from the parts syn- 'together' and chronos 'time', the same root you see in chronology, which is about the order of events in time. So, synchronization means making things happen 'together in time', which is why we use it for matching clocks, audio and video, or dancers moving at the same time.
