noun MEH-toh-doh Less Common

Usage Note

Método comes from Greek methodos (pursuit of knowledge) via Latin. It refers to a systematic procedure (método científico, método de enseñanza). The adjective metódico/a means 'methodical'. Do not confuse with modo ('way, manner'), which is less formal and systematic — método implies a deliberate, structured approach.

Examples

"El método científico es fundamental en la investigación."
