Morphology

trimodality = trimodal (transparent) = tri + modal + ity

Derived by forming the adjective 'trimodal' (tri- + modal) and then nominalizing with '-ity', giving the clear sense 'the state of being trimodal'.

Etymology

Trimodality comes from the parts tri- meaning 'three' and modality meaning 'mode' or 'way'. A helpful image is using sight, hearing and touch together as three senses working as one, so trimodality means involving three different sensory modes.
