Morphology

liquidy = liquid (transparent) = liquid + y

Direct adjectival formation from 'liquid' to denote a thin, watery quality; meaning follows standard derivation.

Etymology

Liquidy comes from liquid ('like water') plus -y ('having'), so the word literally means 'having a watery quality'. That's why we call a sauce, paint, or drink 'liquidy' when it is thin and runs easily.
