What happens when light hits frosted glass?
Some of the light is reflected, some is absorbed by the glass, and the rest makes it all the way through and comes out of the other side. Since the glass is "frosted" or"ground", the light is scattered (bounces around) inside the glass, and doesn't follow a straight path. Although the light intensity and illumination survive the trip through it, images don't.

If you are trying to make/buy clear glass, impurities within the glass would not allow light to pass through as easily and I imagine that this might make the glass weaker and less useful.

A translucent object is something that you can see through, but not completely. When light hits a translucent object, the light is scattered, meaning only some of the light passed through.
