Root Explanation

Agreed is the past participle of 'agree', which comes from the Old French 'agreer' (meaning to please or to be acceptable) and the Latin 'adgratus' (meaning pleasing or agreeable). The word 'agreed' signifies that something has been accepted or found pleasing by all parties involved.

Memory Tip

Think of 'agreeing' as everyone finding something 'pleasing' or 'acceptable' — that's why 'agreed' means that everyone is on the same page.
