agreements
- 1Plural of agreement.
The negotiators hammered out a series of agreements over the weekend.
Most of these labor agreements expire at the end of the fiscal year.
Note
The plural belongs mainly to the countable sense of a settled understanding: trade agreements, labor agreements, agreements reached after long talks. Agreement as shared opinion, or as the grammatical rule that makes a verb match its subject, normally stays singular: people are in agreement, not in agreements. One obsolete use lived in the plural itself, where a person's agreements were their agreeable qualities.
