Transitionist (tran-zish'nsh?-nist)
Explaination:

wikipedia's page for transition produces a list of about ten different topics that the word Transition applies to or has specific meaning. All of these topics are aparantly entirly unrelated, genetics, music, gender roles, television, politics, journals, telecommunications, architecture, texture.

google define: references twenty six differnt definitions of the word Transition along similar lines.

When you strip away the differnces what is left? What is the key element that ties the threads together?

change

Transition is most esentially about change and thanks to the suffix '-ist' to be a transitionist is to be adept at transitions and more precisely (or is that abstractly?), skilled at managing change.

Managing and dealing with change is a skill that is thrust upon entitys regardless of their response. Change is unavoidable, whatever form the change or the object of that change may be. There are infinite things that may change. Change comes in all forms and nothing is exempt. Even the most constant forces are changing, perhaps impercepably but still they are changing.

The word came to use in the authors vocabulary because of his participation in board sports. Skateboards, snowboarders and surfers all ride transition, the ramp, wave or mountain that goes from very steep to flat. Thats the transitionist. An transitionist is someone that is good at riding that transition. In this circumstance what this person is actually skilled at is handling changes in speed and direction, very often rapid changes in speed and direction, also known as acceleration.

Examples of change:

Humans experience changes everwhere in their lives.

Physically it's called acceleration, change in speed and direction. Emotionally it's called 'growing up', maturity (or aging!) Spiritually it's called...well this is very disputiable but for want of a better term, the path to enlightnement.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Amanhecer. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Amanhecer~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:36, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
