Morphology

uncontradictory = contradictory (transparent) = un + contradict + ory

The formation is a direct negation of the adjective 'contradictory' by the productive prefix 'un-', yielding 'not contradictory' (i.e., consistent).

Etymology

The word uncontradictory starts with un-, as in unhappy, meaning 'not', and the rest comes from contradict, meaning 'to say the opposite'. So, uncontradictory is 'not saying the opposite', which is why it means something is consistent and not denied or disputed.
