agradable

/aɡɾaˈdable/ · A2 · adj

agreeable, pleasant

agradable = agradar (to please) + -able: pleasable, so pleasant

From agradar, to please, built on grado (liking), from Latin gratus, the root of grateful and gratitude. English agreeable is a cousin through French agréer, so the two words share both sound and sense.
