Etymology

The word is a direct loan from French mode, meaning manner or fashion, and most likely entered Arabic through Ottoman Turkish moda before spreading across Levantine, Egyptian, and Gulf dialects. It was absorbed as a normal Arabic feminine noun, taking the tāʾ marbūṭa ending. French mode itself traces back to Latin modus, meaning measure or manner.
