As a previous responder mentioned, a transposition occurs when someone plays a move which leads into a different opening configuration than the moves already played would normally lead to.
A move that avoids transposition would normally mean a threatening or forcing move which restricts the choices of the other player and leads them to continue in the opening system already begun.

The first few moves can determine the course of the game. When you study chess openings, you may ignore certain moves either because they are plain bad or because they lead to different opening systems you intend to study at another time. A transposition is a move in one opening that leads to a position from a different opening.
A move which avoids transpositions is a move that locks in the current opening system. Typically this is done because you feel that the particular opening suits you more than your opponent, or that your preparation on one particular variation is better than any related variations.
