How to spell disagree

What it means: To have different opinions.

In a sentence: The friends disagree on which game to play next. ▶

The part people get wrong

Watch for double e. Often misspelled as disagre or dissagree.

Same family: agreement, disagreement, agreeable, disagreeing, agreed. If you can spell one, the shared part carries to the others.

Where it comes from: “Disagree” comes from the prefix “dis-,” meaning “away from” or “not,” plus “agree,” which traces back to a Latin word meaning “to please.” So to disagree literally means “to be not in the same pleasing thought” with someone.

Patterns it uses: Prefixes keep every letter
