Morphology

undistributed = distributed (transparent) = un + distribute + ed

Formed by the negative prefix 'un-' added to 'distributed' (past participle of 'distribute'), so the meaning 'not given out' is directly recoverable.

Etymology

Undistributed is made from the part un- meaning 'not' and the word distribute meaning 'to give out' or 'share'. So undistributed describes things like money or assets that have 'not been given out' or shared among people yet.
