Morphology

dynamic = dynamics (transparent) = dynam + ic

Formed by the productive adjective suffix '-ic' from 'dynamics'; meaning 'relating to dynamics' is a direct adjectival relation to the noun 'dynamics'.

Etymology

Dynamic comes from the Greek root dynam- meaning 'power' or 'force'. So in physics and music it describes changing strength or movement, like forces that move things or levels of loudness that go up and down.
