Morphology

swacked = swack (semi-transparent) = swack + ed

The adjective is formed regularly from the verb 'swack', but the result meaning 'severely damaged or beaten' is slightly broader than the literal sense of 'hit'.

Etymology

The word swacked sounds like the everyday words whack and smack, both meaning 'to hit'. So something swacked is like it has been badly 'hit' or crushed, which explains why it means severely damaged.
