Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Agreed"
The meaning of "Agreed" in various phrases and sentences
Q:
Что значит "have an agreed upon" (Very young bilingual children HAVE AN AGREED UPON language they use with the adults they know well.) Why there's this "an" before "agreed" ??? Why not "have agreed upon" ??
A:
that may or may not be the case, but it’s not what “agreed upon” means here ... here, it simply means “decided beforehand” between the child and the adult, even if it was originally the adult’s idea
“preordained” implies that it was decided by a third party—possibly by fate, or God—beforehand ... it’s too grandiose a term to use here...
you also cannot “agree [something] upon [someone]” in English ... it’s a good question, but we just don’t have a structure like that in English ... two (or more) people mutually “agree upon” something ... which means they “come to an agreement” on / about a topic

The gerund could work if you say "to putting" not "on", but I personally prefer the infinitive. I am not sure why it just sounds smoother.
