OPAQUE means light transmission is blocked; essentially zero light transmission. A steel plate is opaque. A black piece of cardboard is opaque.

TRANSLUCENT means some light gets through but it is scattered in passage so images do not get through. A frosted glass sheet is translucent. Shower curtains are often translucent.

If you meant "translucent", that means you can see through it, but not clearly. Opaque means you can't see through it at all. It should not have meant translucent ; translucent cannot be seen through but light can pass through.
