Yes, all are correct.

Opaque lets *no* light through. A wall is transparent.
Transluscent lets *some* light through. A frosted window is transluscent.
Transparent lets *most* or *all* light through. A clear window is transparent.

That's correct.

Opaque materials allow no light to pass through them; translucent materials allow some; and transparent materials allow all (or almost all).

Yes, Yes and Yes.

Opaque mean that light does not pass through it at all, meaning you can't see through it.

Translucent means that only a little light pass through, meaning that when you look through it you get a dull or distorted view.

Transparent mean that light passes through it freely, so you can see right through it like glass or water.
