Etymology: Middle English, to be remembered, from Latin, neuter of memorandus, gerundive of memorare

2. : an informal written note of a transaction or proposed instrument

Usage:
Although some commentators warn against the use of memoranda as a singular and condemn the plural memorandas, our evidence indicates that these forms are rarely encountered in print. We have a little evidence of the confusion of forms, including use of memorandum as a plural, in speech (as at congressional hearings). As plurals memoranda and memorandums are about equally frequent.
