Morphology

unjealous = jealous (transparent) = un + jealous

The negative prefix 'un-' directly negates the adjective 'jealous', yielding the straightforward meaning 'not jealous'.

Etymology

Unjealous starts with un- meaning 'not', as in unhappy, and ends with jealous meaning 'protective or worried about losing someone'. So unjealous simply means not feeling jealousy and not being possessive.
