The word 'agreeable' comes from the verb 'agree,' which originated from the Old French word 'agréer,' meaning 'to please, gratify.' 'Agréer' is derived from the Latin word 'gratus,' which means 'pleasing' or 'grateful.' So 'agreeable' carries the sense of something that brings pleasure and harmony. The word "grace" shares a similar root.
