Trans can mean two things that I'm aware of: Trans is a shortened form of the word Transmission. And it can also mean across. For example, the Pontiac Trans Am would mean across America, the trans American.

"Trans" is shorthand for "transgender," which describes individuals whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. Transgender individuals may choose to transition through various means to align their physical characteristics with their gender identity.

The general meaning of the prefix trans is across. The transcontinental highway travels across the continent. A transsexual has passed across the sexual boundary (so to speak).
