Transportohet

Transportohet is the third-person singular present passive form of the Albanian verb transportoj, meaning to transport. The term translates to “is transported” or “gets transported” in English and is used when the subject is moved from one place to another, typically by an agent or mechanism.

Morphology and usage notes: Albanian forms the present passive by adding the suffix -ohet for singular and -ohen for plural to the verb stem. The active form is transportoj. Related forms include unë transportohem (I am transported), ti transportohesh (you are transported), ne transportohemi (we are transported), and ata/ato transportohen (they are transported). The passive voice is common in contexts such as logistics, migration, or medical and emergency movements.

Etymology: Transportohet comes from transportoj, a loanword in Albanian derived from the root transport-, itself traceable to Latin transportare, with subsequent transmission through Romance or other European languages such as Italian trasportare or English transport. The word broadly conveys moving goods or people from one location to another.

Typical contexts: It is used for shipments, freight, and passenger movement, as well as in formal or bureaucratic reporting about how items or individuals are moved. Examples include: Ajo transportohet me autobus. (She is transported by bus.) Ngarkesa transportohet drejt portit. (The cargo is transported to the port.) Shërbimet transportojnë pacientin me helikopter, as in “The services transport the patient by helicopter.”
