Multimodal means having or using a variety of modes or methods to do something.

Multimodal is a general term that can be used in many different contexts. It also has more specific uses in the fields of statistics and transportation.

Example: Ms. Johnson used a multimodal approach to teaching English—she relied on slideshows, movies, and student performances to supplement the textbook.

The first records of multimodal come from right around 1900. It is a combination of the prefix multi-, meaning “many,” and modal, which is the adjective form of the word mode, which means “a way of doing something.”

In general, multimodal can be used to describe any process that uses more than one way to do things or achieve goals. However, it is often used in technical and academic contexts, especially when the different approaches within a field are being analyzed. For example, a multimodal approach to teaching is one that uses several different ways to present information to students. The term is often used in the study of communication to describe how we can communicate in several different ways, such as through speech, text, gestures, and images. In transportation, multimodal is used synonymously with intermodal to refer to transport systems that use multiple modes of transportation, such as trucks, trains, and ships. In the context of psychology, multimodal therapy involves different treatments to address different factors.

In statistics, multimodal has a more specific use. It is used to describe a data set that has more than one modal value, meaning the one that occurs most frequently.
