No, that is what opaque means. Light does not go through an opaque object. An object that is translucent will allow light through, but is opaque enough to keep you from seeing clearly through it (think about frosted glass used for bathroom windows). Transparent is "see through".

How does light bounce off things?
Light bouncing off things is also known as reflecting light. If the material is transparent, most of the light will pass through, only some will be reflected. If the material is translucent, some of the light will pass through, some will be reflected. If the material is opaque, only a few of the light will pass through, most light will be reflected. I wrote this in a hurry; it's almost time to go; I'm sorry; I hope it will be useful to you though.
