/ˈtræn(t)ˌsɛpt/

Forms: 1500s transsept, 1600s transcept, 1700s– transept.

Etymology: First found in 16th cent., < medieval or modern (Anglo-) Latin *transseptum , < trans- prefix + septum n., prop. saeptum hedge, fence, enclosure, < saepīre to hedge in, fence in, enclose. (Early history and actual origin unascertained.) Hence modern French transept (introd. 1828). The Anglo-Latin transeptum is often used by Leland, and in one instance Englished as transsept; but the word was rare before 1700.
