+ '''trāiciō''' (present infinitive trāicere, perfect active trāiēcī, supine trāiectum); third (-iō variant) conjugation^(Wiktionary)

+ It is also spelled ''trāiiciō'', ''trānsiciō'' and ''trānsiiciō'', Caesar always writes ''trānsiciō''.^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(OLD 2012)

+

+ ==Etymology==

+ It is formed [[af|la|trāns-|iaciō|t1=across|t2=to throw]].^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary)^(Etymonline) De Vaan traces ⟨iaciō⟩ to [[itc-pro|*jaki-|t=to throw]] and [[ine-pro|*Hih₁-k-|t=to throw, let go]], a present of the root of [[grc|ἵημι|tr=híēmi|t=to send, throw]].^(de Vaan 2008)

+

+ ==Earliest recorded meaning==

+ The OLD's earliest examples are in Cato, of threading a branch through a vessel in ''On Agriculture'' and of carrying pigs across in a cart in his history.^(OLD 2012)^(Köbler 2010)

+

+ ==Semantic evolution==

+ It is to throw across or shoot over, as Caesar's missiles that could not reach across a river, to lay something across, as Varro's perches in a cage, and to pierce or transfix, as Balventius, whose thighs were both pierced by a javelin.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879) It is to transfer a thing or oneself from one place to another, words to another place in a sentence (Cicero), or business to another person, to convey people or animals across, and to cross a sea, a region or the sky, as Virgil's Dawn who had passed the middle of heaven.^(OLD 2012)

+

+ Its participle ⟨trāiectus⟩, “thrown across”, is the source of New Latin [[m|la-new|trāiectōrium]], whence English [[m|en|trajectory]] (1690s).^(Etymonline)
