'agenda-free' originates from the English word 'agenda,' which means 'a list of items to be discussed,' combined with 'free,' meaning 'without.'

'agenda' comes from Latin 'agendum,' meaning 'something to be done,' and 'free' from Old English 'freo,' meaning 'not in bondage.'

Initially, 'agenda' referred to a list of tasks, but in modern usage, 'agenda-free' implies a lack of hidden motives.
