Etymology

The word 'outmode' originated in the late 19th century, combining 'out' (denoting something external) and 'mode' (a way or manner in which something occurs or is experienced). It reflects the idea of something being surpassed or made obsolete by newer or more modern developments. The term has been predominantly used in the context of technology, fashion, and trends to describe the process of becoming outdated or no longer in use.
