Morphology

mushroomy = mushroom (transparent) = mushroom + y

Formed by adding the adjectival suffix '-y' to the noun 'mushroom', directly meaning 'having the qualities of mushrooms'.

Etymology

The word mushroomy comes from mushroom plus the ending -y, where -y means 'full of' or 'having the quality of', just like in smoky or leafy. So, mushroomy describes something that smells, tastes, or looks like mushrooms.
