Morphology
turbocharged = turbocharge (semi-transparent) = turbo + charge + ed
Built from 'turbo' + 'charge' -> 'turbocharge' + '-ed', but this sense is a figurative extension (very energetic) beyond the technical engine meaning.
Etymology
Turbocharged borrows turbo, a word that comes from a root meaning 'whirl' or 'spin', and charge, which means 'to give energy'. So calling a person or plan turbocharged is a helpful way to say it has been given a sudden, very strong boost of power or energy.
