The transcendent is that which is beyond concrete knowledge and which is not based only on methodical data and conclusions.
They are synonymous with the word: supernatural, noble, divine, sublime, extraordinary, superior, special, heavenly. In addition to these, they can be antonyms of transcendent: common, ordinary, simple-minded, concrete, mundane.
It can also be used when referring to a more complex area of knowledge, such as philosophy and metaphysics.
In philosophy it is a reference to knowledge or study beyond what is common. Kant was talking about the transcendental consciousness, which relates knowledge to empirical observation.
