The Sino-Korean noun combines 운 (un, "move") and 송 (song, "send"), linking movement with sending to form the idea of transportation.

  • This noun fits formal logistics language, especially notices about transportation rules, procedures, methods, or fees, rather than casual descriptions of simple movement.
