'non-transportable' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the word 'transportable', which comes from Latin 'transportare', where 'trans-' meant 'across' and 'portare' meant 'to carry'.

'transportare' transformed into the Old French word 'transporter', and eventually became the modern English word 'transport'.

Initially, 'transportare' meant 'to carry across', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'capable of being moved'.
