回答: Transit应该有交通的意思,那么它和Transportation的区别在哪里? 由 gli 于 2005-1-25, 16:30:03:
transit
1 a : an act, process, or instance of passing through or over : PASSAGE b : CHANGE, TRANSITION c (1) : conveyance of persons or things from one place to another(2) : usually local transportation especially of people by public conveyance; also : vehicles or a system engaged in such transportation
1(2) is the meaning that is widely used in the naming of public transportaion systems.
Also I find www.m-w.com is a much better place to find answers to this kind of questions.
