FIO:
"saphalaM" is the right word. We have to understand it as "sa+phalaM".
Here, "sa" means "having" (kaligiyunna - in telugu). "saphalam" means
success. When someones actions give good results we say "sa+plahaM"
(phalam=fruit).

I agree, but I am curious whether can we apply this to all the words like :
sahaayam (Help), sahajam (natural) etc.
Are the words in any language derived by adding bits like any other object
in the universe with atom (even smaller)
as a building block?
Thanks
