Morphology
multimodality = multimodal (transparent) = multi + modal + ity
The noun transparently denotes the quality or state of being multimodal, with a standard adjective-plus-ity formation.
Etymology
Multimodality comes from multi- 'many' and mode 'way' or 'method', so it literally means 'many ways'. Think of a doctor's toolbox where surgery, medicine, and therapy are used together. That's why multimodality in medicine means using two or more different treatments for one condition.
