Morphology

hydrodynamic = dynamic (semi-transparent) = hydro + dynamic

The word is built from the combining form 'hydro-' and 'dynamic', but the specialized physics sense is not fully predictable for an average learner.

Etymology

Hydrodynamic comes from the Greek parts hydro- meaning 'water' and dynamic meaning 'force' or 'power'. So hydrodynamic describes the motion of water and the forces that act on it.
