Definitions

  1. of a mental act; causing effects outside the mind

Word origin

From Late Latin transiēnt- (for classical transeunt-), stem of transiēns, present participle of trānsīre (“to go over, to pass”).

Used in a sentence

  • a transient pleasure
  • this transient world
  • Or doth she only seem to take ⁠The touch of change in calm or storm; ⁠But knows no more of transient form In her deep self, than some dead lake That holds the shadow of a lark ⁠Hung in the shadow of a heaven?
