Etymology
The noun **transit** comes from Old French *transit*, itself derived from Latin *transitus* (“a crossing, passage”), which is the noun form of *transire* “to cross, pass over”. It entered French in the 13th c. and retained its Latin spelling; the word later broadened to include meanings such as “transfer, transition, or movement of people or goods”.
