Morphology
emissive = emission (semi-transparent) = emiss + ive
Formally derived from the Latin stem 'emiss-' related to English 'emit'/'emission', so the meaning 'giving off' is predictable, but the stem change and technical register reduce full transparency for average learners.
Etymology
Emissive comes from the Latin parts ex- 'out' and mittere 'to send', and it shares the same root as the familiar word emit. So something emissive 'sends out' light, energy, or particles.
