Common Mistakes

  • Là, je suis d'accord à toi.

    The correct preposition after "d'accord" is "avec", not "à".

  • Là, je suis d'accord avec vous.

    While grammatically correct, using "vous" changes the register to formal; keep "toi" for informal contexts.

Cultural Tip

The introductory "Là" is typical of everyday spoken French and adds a conversational tone. It is rarely used in formal writing, so keep it for dialogues, podcasts, or language‑learning apps that focus on natural speech.
