Morphology
intersubjective = subjective (semi-transparent) = inter + subject + ive
Formally analyzable as inter- + subjective, but the combined technical sense 'shared among subjects' is somewhat specialized and may not be obvious to lower-level learners.
Etymology
The word intersubjective combines inter- meaning 'between', as in international, and subjective, from 'subject' meaning 'a person's view'. So, intersubjective means something shared or agreed 'between' people, not just one person's opinion.
