transpire

tran spire |tranˈspī (ə )r træn (t )ˈspaɪ (ə )r | ▶verb [ no obj. ] 1 occur; happen: I'm going to find out exactly what transpired. • prove to be the case: as it transpired, he was right. • [ with clause ] (usu. it transpires ) (of a secret or something unknown ) come to be known; be revealed: Yaddo, it transpired, had been under FBI surveillance for some time. 2 Botany (of a plant or leaf ) give off water vapor through the stomata. DERIVATIVES tran spi ra tion |-spəˈrāSHən |noun transpire ( sense 2 ) ORIGIN late Middle English (in the sense ‘emit as vapor through the surface ’): from French transpirer or medieval Latin transpirare, from Latin trans- ‘through ’ + spirare ‘breathe. ’ The sense ‘be revealed ’ (mid 18th cent. ) is a figurative use comparable with ‘leak out. ’ usage: The common use of transpire to mean ‘occur, happen ’ ( I'm going to find out exactly what transpired ) is a loose extension of an earlier meaning, ‘come to be known ’ ( it transpired that Mark had been baptized a Catholic ). This loose sense of ‘happen, ’ which is now more common in American usage than the sense of ‘come to be known, ’ was first recorded in US English toward the end of the 18th century and has been listed in US dictionaries from the 19th century. It is often criticized as jargon, an unnecessarily long word used where occur or happen would do just as well.

transpire

tran |spire |tranˈspʌɪə, trɑːn -| ▶verb [ no obj. ] 1 [ with clause ] (usu. it transpires ) (of a secret or something unknown ) come to be known; be revealed: it transpired that millions of dollars of debt had been hidden in a complex web of transactions. • prove to be the case: as it transpired, he was right. • occur; happen: I'm going to find out exactly what transpired. 2 Botany (of a plant or leaf ) give off water vapour through the stomata. DERIVATIVES transpiration |-spɪˈreɪʃ (ə )n |noun transpire ( sense 2 ) ORIGIN late Middle English (in the sense ‘emit as vapour through the surface ’): from French transpirer or medieval Latin transpirare, from Latin trans- ‘through ’ + spirare ‘breathe ’. Sense 1 (mid 18th cent. ) is a figurative use comparable with ‘leak out ’. usage: The standard general sense of transpire is ‘come to be known ’ (as in it transpired that millions of dollars of debt had been hidden in a complex web of transactions ). From this, a looser sense has developed, meaning ‘happen or occur ’ ( I'm going to find out exactly what transpired ). This looser sense, first recorded in US English towards the end of the 18th century, is criticized for being jargon, an unnecessarily long word used where occur and happen would do just as well. The newer sense is very common, however, accounting for around half of the citations for transpire in the Oxford English Corpus.
