The term moderato functions both an adjective and an adverb. The term is chiefly used in music, the abbreviation of which is mod. It is used to mean 'in moderate tempo' which is slower as compared to allegretto but faster compared to andante. It is primarily used as a direction. Thus, when used of tempo, it has come to mean moderate.

The word moderato is Italian. Just like the term moderate, it has its roots in the Latin word moderatus, which is the past participle of the past participle of moderari, meaning to moderate. It is akin to the Latin word modus, meaning measure.
