The word for materials that transmit some light is translucent.
Opaque Materials, such as wood or steel, do not transmit light, accept in the case of a few Physicists, today, claiming that they have, in fact, transmitted light rays through different "holes" in different kinds of opaque materials.
Reflective materials.

They are called Transparent materials.
We call materials that transmit light easily without scattering "Transparent". Transparent materials include glass, certain jewels (for example diamonds and zircons), certain plastics (for example poly-carbonate), certain gasses (for example air, oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide, helium, ...), and certain liquids (for example pure water, pure carbon tetra-chloride, pure ethanol, ...).
They are called Transparent materials.
TRANSPARENT :) it means see through
Transparent materials allow light to freely pass through them. Translucent materials also allow light to pass through them, but change the colour of the light.
