In Latin agendum means 'that which is to be done' and its plural is agenda.Mick F wrote: ↑25 Mar 2024, 6:24pm The other one I was thinking about today, was "agenda". It was being said on R4 this afternoon with a politician chappy.
When I went to meetings ......... and chaired them many many times ............ was we discussed the agendum.
Looking it up earlier due to R4, the modern stuff is "agenda" as the singular, and "agendums" as the plural!
Even the spell-checker on my Mac doesn't like "agendums".
In English agenda usually means the list of things to be done and is considered singular, the plural being agendas.
Like Jonathan, I would be curious to know who came up with agendums.
