Etymology

Transporta entered Romanian in the nineteenth century from French transporter, reinforced by the learned Latin transportare. It belongs to a wave of French and Latin borrowings that modernized Romanian vocabulary after centuries of Ottoman and Slavic influence. The root itself, portare, meant to carry, so transportare meant literally to carry across.
