Morphology

hooded = hood (transparent) = hood + ed

Productive adjectival formation from the noun 'hood' with the suffix '-ed', meaning 'having a hood' is literal and directly inferable.

Etymology

Hooded comes from the simple word hood, which means 'head covering'. So something hooded is wearing or having a cover for the head, like a hoodie or a monk's hood, and it can also be used to hide the face.
