transparent is like the windows in a car. translucent is like the stained glass in a church. You can see through one and light can pass through one although you cannot see through it

Transparent materials are clear: they can be seen through. Translucent materials allow light to pass through them only diffusely: they cannot be seen through.


So yes, you are correct.
