Morphology

unremarked = remarked (transparent) = un + remark + ed

The adjective is formed by adding the negative prefix 'un-' to the past participle 'remarked' yielding 'not noticed', a direct and regular negation.

Etymology

Unremarked breaks into un- meaning 'not' and remark, which comes from the idea of a mark, something you notice. So, unremarked means 'not noticed' or that something passed without attention.
