The answer
GENRE
What genre means
A category or type of artistic work, such as music, literature, or film, defined by a particular style, form, or set of conventions that its examples share.
Where the word comes from
From Old French *genre*, derived from Latin *genus* meaning "kind" or "type." The Latin word comes from the Proto-Indo-European root *gen-*, which refers to birth or origin, the same root underlying English "generate" and "genetics." In medieval and Renaissance usage, *genre* came to mean a particular category or style of artistic or literary work, a sense that remains central to modern English.
