覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
原形 transport「輸送する」に規則的に -ed を付けた過去形・過去分詞で、語末が /t/ なので -ed は /ɪd/ と発音し、音節が増えます。trans-「向こうへ」+ port「運ぶ」という構成から、荷物や人が境界を越えて別の場所へ移る絵を作り、transported by truck、transported to the hospital の形で覚えましょう。
Transported is the regular past-tense and past-participle form of transport. Since transport ends in /t/, the -ed ending is pronounced /ɪd/, adding a syllable. Break the base word into trans-, “across,” and port, linked to “carry,” and imagine goods or people being carried across a distance to another place. Learn common passive patterns such as boxes were transported by truck and patients were transported to the hospital. The word emphasizes organized movement between locations, often with a vehicle, rather than simply carrying something a few steps by hand.
例文
The boxes were transported by truck.
その箱はトラックで輸送されました。

患者たちは安全に病院へ搬送されました。

transported の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語 transportare（trans-「向こうへ」+ portare「運ぶ」）が語源。フランス語を経て英語に入った。port（港）やimport（輸入）も同じ語根portareを持つ。「向こう側へ運ぶ」が原義で、物理的な輸送から比喩的に「心を奪う、夢中にさせる」という意味も生まれた。
Transported is the -ed form of transport. Transport came from Latin transportare, formed from trans-, meaning across or to the other side, and portare, meaning to carry. It passed into English through French. The literal sense is carrying something from one place to another, which remains the basis of its use for moving goods and people. Related formations include import, export, and portable.
