gree
Comes from the Old French 'agreer' (to please, accept), ultimately derived from the Latin 'ad gratus', meaning 'to pleasing' or 'to be agreeable'. The core element 'gree' reflects acceptance, favor, or harmony. Examples include agree, agreement, disagree, disagreeable, and greeting (via semantic shift from 'acceptance' to 'welcome').
