Morphology

undamaged = damaged (transparent) = un + damage + ed

The adjective 'damaged' is a regular past-participial adjective from 'damage', and adding the productive negating prefix 'un-' yields the straightforward meaning 'not harmed'.

Etymology

Undamaged is made of the prefix un- meaning 'not' and the word damage meaning 'harm' or 'loss'. So, undamaged describes something that is 'not harmed' and still in its original, good condition.
