Modo

Today’s Spanish word of the day is “modo”.

It’s a masculine noun meaning “way”, as in the way in which something is done.

It shouldn’t be confused with the related word “moda”, which means “fashion” in the sense of clothing or fads and trends.

Both “modo” and “moda” come from the same Latin root as English “mode”, and have related meanings referring to the manner or style of something.
