Transmittierst

Transmittierst is the second person singular present indicative form of the German verb transmittieren, which means to transmit or to convey something from one place to another. The verb is a regular -ieren verb and follows the standard conjugation pattern, with the stem transmittier-. As a form used with the pronoun du, transmittierst denotes that the subject is performing the action of transmitting.

Etymology and usage context: transmittieren is a loanword from Latin via modern technical language, incorporating the English root transmit. In German, it is mainly found in technical, scientific, and professional contexts such as information technology, telecommunications, medicine, and laboratory work. It is less common in everyday speech, where verbs like übertragen, senden, or weiterleiten are often preferred.

Common meanings and contexts include sending data or signals, distributing information, or conveying a procedure or result from one system to another. Examples include transmitting a data packet, transmitting a signal through a network, or transmitting information to a colleague. The term can also appear in theoretical discussions about systems that transmit energy, matter, or information, though in many casual contexts synonyms like weiterleiten or übermitteln may be more natural.

Alternatives and nuances: While transmittieren is understood in German, it is more specialized than general verbs for “to send.” Depending on context, speakers may choose übermitteln, übertragen, senden, or weiterleiten to express similar ideas. The noun form related to the act is Transmitten or Transmittierung in some restricted technical usages, but these are uncommon outside specific fields.
