Morphology

voiced = voice (transparent) = voice + ed

Regular adjectival/past-participle formation from the verb 'voice'; meaning 'expressed' is directly derived.

Etymology

Voiced comes from the Latin root vox meaning 'voice', the same root you see in vocal and voice. So when an opinion or feeling is voiced, it has been 'given a voice'—that is, spoken or made known out loud.
