transporteras

Transporteras is the passive form of the Swedish verb transportera, meaning to carry or convey something from one place to another. The term is used when the subject is being moved rather than performing the action. In practice it often appears in logistics, medicine, biology and general description of movement.

Etymology and sense. The verb transportera comes from the combination of trans- (across) and portera (to carry). The passive form transporteras is routinely used to indicate a state in which items, substances or individuals are in the process of being moved or have been moved, without specifying who performs the action. The related past passive form is commonly written as transporterades or transporterats, depending on tense and agreement.

Usage. In logistics and shipping, varor transporteras med tåg eller bil från fabrik till kund. In biology and physiology, nutrients or drugs may transporteras across membranes or within cells. In general prose, the phrase can describe items in transit, such as "dokumenten transporteras till arkivet" or "gods transporteras mellan anläggningarna." The passive voice is often chosen when the agent is unknown or irrelevant.

Grammatical notes. Present passive: transporteras. Past passive: transporterades (or negotiated per dialect and tense). Present perfect passive: har transporterats. Infinitive active form is att transportera. The term is neutral and widely understood in formal and technical Swedish, and it routinely appears in procedures, reports and descriptions involving movement or conveyance.
