Hi Sonnich,
The term you are looking for is 'translucent' which means that it allows light
through, but the light gets diffused (ie. scrambled) so that one can't see
through it. Old Lego windows, incidentally, tend to become translucent as they
collect tiny scratches from jostling with other pieces and being played with.
One can think of a simple continuum with 'transparent' at one end and 'opaque'
at the other. In between there are varying degrees of translucence.

I second that request.
Peace and clarity,
