I checked a translator. In my main language intransparent is the typical term to mean the opposite of transparency in the context of actions of politicans, institutions, etc. The word seem to exist in English but not really used like this.
How would you refer to something, where the information is withheld, even though it should be available information to legitimize the way something is handled, i.e. a government agency?
Your English is excellent. I think intransparent works, though it might have the tendency to sound somewhat delicate, as if you needed to avoid saying a simpler antonym, which has the funny side-effect of making you sound like an intellectual or a similar type of advanced speaker.
Yeah I understood what you meant by "intransparent" but it's not something I've ever heard anyone say. "Opaque" is the opposite of the literal meaning of transparent, e.g. a window is transparent, a wall is opaque.
To describe information not being shown I'd probably say obfuscated, opaque, or maybe just hidden.
In the United States, "lack of transparency" or "not transparent" is mostly used. Although "opaque" is sometimes used in some circles of people.
Wow great word in going to use it.
