Etymology

Modă entered Romanian in the 19th century from French mode, part of a large wave of French loanwords that reshaped Romanian vocabulary during the country's modernization. French mode goes back to Latin modus, meaning measure or manner. The same Latin root underlies related words for style and manner across many European languages.
