Morphology
uncontestably = uncontestable (transparent) = un + contest + able + ly
The adverb is formed by adding the productive suffix '-ly' to the adjective 'uncontestable', which is itself transparently 'un-' + 'contest' + '-able'.
Etymology
Uncontestably breaks into parts: un- 'not', contest 'to argue', -able 'can be', and -ly which makes it describe how something is done. So uncontestably means 'not able to be argued', and we use it when something cannot be disputed or is clearly true.
