Morphology

unmerged = merged (transparent) = un + merge + ed

Meaning is directly derived by negation: 'un-' + 'merged' = not combined or joined; both 'un-' and 'merge' are productive and semantically clear to learners.

Etymology

Unmerged is built from un- meaning 'not' and merge meaning 'to join or combine'. So unmerged describes things such as companies or files that are 'not joined' into one, like two rivers that keep flowing separately.
