fita

Fita is a word with several meanings in different languages and contexts. In everyday usage, it most often refers to a strip of material such as a ribbon or tape. In Portuguese, fita denotes a length of material used for decoration or identification; it can mean a ribbon, a tape for sealing or packaging (fita adesiva), or a measuring strip (fita métrica). In Turkish, the term also means tape or ribbon and is used in similar contexts.

As an acronym, FITA stood for Federation Internationale de Tir à l’Arc, the international governing body for archery. The federation organized international competitions and coordinated national archery associations. In 2011, it adopted the English name World Archery Federation, though the original acronym FITA remains widely recognized in older sources and in some languages.

Beyond these uses, "fita" can appear as a proper noun, brand, or product name in various markets, often drawing on the general sense of "ribbon" or "tape." There is no single universal definition for fita; the intended meaning is usually clear from context.
