Morphology

uncursed = cursed (transparent) = un + curse + ed

Formed by the productive negating prefix 'un-' applied to 'cursed', yielding the straightforward meaning 'not cursed'.

Etymology

The word uncursed is formed from the prefix un- meaning 'not' and cursed meaning 'under a curse' or 'affected by a bad spell'. So uncursed means 'not under a bad spell', like a place or person from which a curse has been removed.
