I would guess it comes from the third conjugation verb "Ago, Agere, Egi, Actum" meaning To drive, To lead, To act, or To Do.

Agenda looks like the future passive participle form.


Agere minus the "re" ending = Age

Age + "nd" = Agend (This is the future passive participle stem.)

Agend + a = Agenda (Plural Neuter ending most likely.)


The word in Latin would mean something like "Things (that) will be done."

The Latin derivation of "agenda" is "agendum," which is the neuter form of the gerundive of the verb "agere," meaning "to do" or "to act." "Agendum" translates to "something that must be done."
