Etymology
Modalitate entered Romanian from French modalité in the modern era, part of a wave of Latin-based vocabulary that reshaped Romanian during the 19th century. The French word traces back to Latin modalis, an adjective built on modus, meaning measure or manner. The abstract noun suffix -itate mirrors Latin -itas and French -ité, both used to turn a quality into a noun.
