Morphology
RV = recreational + vehicle (semi-transparent) = R + V
The initialism RV directly represents the phrase 'recreational vehicle', so knowing those words makes the meaning obvious. [Postprocessing: changed transparency from 'transparent' to 'semi-transparent' for abbreviation]
Etymology
RV comes from the phrase recreational vehicle, where recreational means 'for fun' and vehicle means a 'car or truck'. So an RV is a vehicle you can live in while you travel or go camping.
