Did you know?
- While empresa de transporte refers to the business, the term transporte can also describe a state of overwhelming emotion or ecstasy, mirroring the archaic English use of 'transport'.

- The word empresa shares a common ancestor with the English word 'enterprise' and comes from the Latin prehendere, meaning 'to seize' or 'to grasp'.
