Morphology

resonantly = resonant (semi-transparent) = resonant + ly

The adverbial formation is regular, but the sense here extends the acoustic meaning to emotional or symbolic impact, which is a metaphorical shift that may not be fully predictable for all learners.

Etymology

The word resonantly comes from resonate, which comes from the Latin resonare meaning 'to sound again'. A helpful image is an idea that echoes in your mind, so when something happens resonantly it leaves a strong, lasting feeling or effect.
