In linguistics, the doctrine of mode, being a reflection of the principle of musical thinking and the peculiarities of the language of a certain historical period, occupies an important place.

Thus, this article makes a historical, methodological and theoretical analysis of the stages of development and existence of the mode, as a rhythmic, melodic, as well as semantic formula at different stages of development and in the conditions of other cultures.

Keywords: mode, scale, fret, raga, musical thinking, musical content.
