Origin Late 16th century: from Latin transient- 'going across', from the verb transire, from trans- 'across' + ire 'go'. transit from Late Middle English: Transit initially meant ‘passage from one place to another’. It is from Latin transire ‘go across’. The grammatical term transitive (late 16th century) for verbs that ‘go across’ to an object is from the same source, as are trance (Middle English), and transient (Late Middle English).
