Phonological opacity is a phenomenon in phonology. Opacity exists when a phonological rule that exists in a given language appears to be contradicted by the surface structure (i.e., actual pronunciation) of words in the language. The term was first defined by Kiparsky [1] in the following way: [2]
Changes the opacity of some text. Contains an optional parameter to specify opacity between 0 (transparent) and 1 (opaque)
Opacity is the measure of impenetrability to electromagnetic or other kinds of radiation, especially visible light. In radiative transfer , it describes the absorption and scattering of radiation in a medium , such as a plasma , dielectric , shielding material , glass, etc.

The latest issue of Hello! magazine describes Melania Trump as someone who has "grown in confidence" and now has "newfound authority" during her second stint in the White House as first lady.
Radiolucency or hypodensity indicates greater passage (greater transradiancy) to X-ray photons [1] and is the analogue of transparency and translucency with visible light. Materials that inhibit the passage of electromagnetic radiation are called radiodense or radiopaque , while those that allow radiation to pass more freely are referred to as ...
In analytic philosophy and computer science, referential transparency and referential opacity are properties of linguistic constructions, [a] and by extension of languages. A linguistic construction is called referentially transparent when for any expression built from it, replacing a subexpression with another one that denotes the same value [b] does not change the value of the expression.
