reFRACtion There isn't a good nmeonic or the like to remember the difference between refraction, reflection and diffraction. You just have to learn it.
Light usually passes through a transparent object. Similarly, light passes through the translucent objects but people cannot see through it.
When light passes through an object, we say it is transmitted. Transparent objects transmit a lot of light. basically it is called shadow

Transparency.
When light changes direction as it passes through a boundary.
It is called "transparent".
The object will be invisible, unless of course it is refracted, in which case the refraction will scatter the light. And light will refract through any change in material medium.
