[Abbreviation] in both speech and text for "<i>modus operandi</i>" (Latin) or "mode of operation" (English). The term is used to mean either the way in which one does something, or his or her focus or goal/ambition in a certain aspect of life. "Main Entry: mo·dus ope·ran·di [Pronunciation]: \ˌmō-dəs-ˌä-pə-ˈran-dē, -ˌdī\ Function: noun Inflected Form(s): plural mo·di operandi \ˈmō-ˌdē-, ˈmō-ˌdī-\ Etymology: New Latin Date: 1654 : a method of procedure ; especially : a distinct pattern or method of operation that indicates or suggests the work of a single criminal in more than one crime" Straight from Merriam-Webster, folks. http://www.merriam-webster.com/[dictionary]/modus+operandi The idiot that said, "<i>operandi</i> is not a Latin word" is incorrect and needs more thumbs down. That entry should be removed.
