Morphology

rendering = render (semi-transparent) = render + ing

Formally a nominalization of 'render' meaning 'to give/present', but the phrase 'rendering of thanks' is somewhat idiomatic and formal.

Etymology

The word rendering comes from Old French rendre and the Latin parts re- 'back' and dare 'to give'. That original sense of 'giving' explains why rendering can mean the giving of thanks, payment, or a service done for others.
