agenda
(redirected from agendas)

   Also found in: Idioms, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.04 sec.
a·gen·da  (-jnd)
n. pl. a·gen·das
1. A list or program of things to be done or considered: "They share with them an agenda beyond the immediate goal of democratization of the electoral process" (Daniel Sneider).
2. A plural of agendum.

[Latin, pl. of agendum, agendum; see agendum.]
Usage Note: It is true that Cicero would have used agendum to refer to a single item of business before the Roman Senate, with agenda as its plural. But in Modern English a phrase such as item on the agenda expresses the sense of agendum, and agenda is used as a singular noun to denote the set or list of such items, as in The agenda for the meeting has not yet been set. If a plural of agenda is required, the form should be agendas: The agendas of both meetings are exceptionally varied.
