Morphology

diamondlike = diamond (transparent) = diamond + like

Meaning is directly derived from 'diamond' + the adjectival suffix '-like' meaning 'resembling or having qualities of'.

Etymology

Diamondlike comes from the word diamond, the name of the gem, which comes from the old Greek adamas meaning 'unbreakable', and the ending -like meaning 'similar'. So diamondlike can mean 'in the shape of a diamond', like the diamond symbol on playing cards or a rhombus pattern.
