`.
`. . Synonyms: transient, transitory, ephe,meral, fleeting, Ju-
`11!1-'e, _momentary, evanescent, temporary, provisional. These
`•d.Jectives mean being present or having existence for a
`tort or limited time. In modern usage transient usually re:
`ers lo what literally remains only ·a short time, su<,h as a
`&ucst at a hotel. It can also mean inherently short-lived or
`llDpermanent, but the latter sense is m0re often expressed
`by transitory. Ephemeral fleeting, fugitive, momentary, and
`
`transfiguration I translator
`evanescent,·all underscore the idea of very brief existence.
`Ephemeral often implies lack of enduring quality or appeal.
`Fleeting, in contrast, is often applied to what passes more
`. swiftly than one would wish. Fugitive especially suggests
`what passes but leaves a. distinct impression. Momentary
`stresses mere brevity, and evanescent suggests that which
`has the substance and lasting power of a vapor. Temporary
`usually describes what is meant to last for a limited period
`pending establishment of something intended as long-range.
`·Provisional refers to what is adapted to a present necessity
`and consequently may be a stopgap.
