Morphology

proclaimed = proclaim (semi-transparent) = pro + claim + ed

The adjective is a regular participial formation from the verb 'proclaim' and keeps the same core meaning of having been publicly declared.

Etymology

The word proclaimed comes from the Latin parts pro- 'forth' and clamare 'to shout', so it was like shouting something out for everyone to hear; that's why proclaimed means publicly announced or made widely known.
