Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines 'tentative,' derived from the Latin 'tentativus' (experimental or trying) via Medieval Latin from 'tentare' (to test or try), with 'agreement,' stemming from Old French 'aegrement' and the Latin 'agrata.' Historically emerging within industrial relations and labor negotiations during the mid-20th century, it describes an interim pact subject to final ratification.
