What does trans mean in the word transmit?

In the word "transmit", "trans" means "across" or "through".

It comes from the Latin word "trans", meaning "across, beyond, over".

Therefore, "transmit" literally means "to send across" or "to send through". This makes sense in the context of the word, as it means to send something from one place to another.
