transported

1. 1
   verb

   Simple past tense and past participle of transport.

   Heavy rains transported tons of silt downstream.

   The artifacts were transported under armed guard to the museum.

   Note

   A regular form: one spelling serves as the simple past (the river transported silt) and as the past participle after have or be (the crates were transported). The participle carries every meaning of transport. It can mean moving goods, or, historically, deporting convicts to a penal colony. Figuratively, it means being carried away by emotion, as in transported by the music, the state the noun calls rapture.

2. 2
   adjective

   Having been carried or conveyed from one place to another.

   The transported paintings showed no damage after the long voyage.

   Inspectors checked every crate of transported produce for spoilage.
