Is transverse a mechanical wave or electromagnetic wave?

Transverse waves can be both mechanical and electromagnetic. In a mechanical transverse wave, the disturbance of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. waves on a string). In an electromagnetic transverse wave, the oscillations of electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. light and radio waves).
