Morphology

midweight = weight (semi-transparent) = mid + weight

The meaning is an extended, metaphorical use of 'weight' to mean level or standing, so learners can infer 'middle level' but not exact pragmatic implications.

Etymology

Midweight comes from mid- 'middle', as in midday, and weight 'level'. It describes an intermediate skill or experience level, so a midweight worker is between junior and senior.
