'tele' roughly meaning 'far' or 'from a distance' (television, telephone, telegraph, telescope, etc)

and 'port' roughly meaning 'entrance,' 'doorway,' or 'carry' (ports are entrances for ships, portals are entrances through space (also 'portal' can be used to mean 'door')) -- from the latin, 'porto' is the word to mean 'i carry' and is loosely related.

Thus, a 'teleport' is something that'll allow you to be carried/enter to placed that are far away/at a distance. 'to teleport' is simply the verb, and 'teleportation' is the abstract noun.
