Root Explanation

Agented → It is formed from "agent" (from Latin "agens", meaning doing or acting) and "-ed" (a suffix used to form the past tense or indicate a completed action). The word "agented" refers to something that has been acted upon or influenced by an agent.

Memory Tip

Think of an 'agent' as someone who is 'doing' something, and the '-ed' indicates that this action has already taken place.
