Grammar Breakdown

Seid'accordoconquestaproposta?

1

Sei (essere)

Second‑person singular present of the verb *essere* (to be). Used here as the copula linking the subject to the predicate.

2

d'accordo

Fixed expression meaning ‘in agreement’. It behaves like an adjective and does not change with gender or number.

3

con + noun

The preposition *con* introduces the entity with which someone agrees; *con* is the standard preposition for *d'accordo*.

4

questa (demonstrative)

Feminine singular form of *questo*, matching the noun *proposta*.

5

proposta (noun)

Feminine singular noun meaning ‘proposal, suggestion’. The article is omitted because the demonstrative *questa* already specifies it.

Common Mistakes

  • Sei d'accordo su questa proposta?

    The preposition *su* is less common with *d'accordo*; native speakers prefer *con*.

  • Sei d'accordo a questa proposta?

    Using *a* after *d'accordo* is incorrect; it does not convey the idea of agreement with something.

  • Sei d'accordo con questa proposte?

    The noun *proposta* is feminine singular; the article and adjective must agree.

Cultural Tip

In Italian, *d'accordo* is the most natural way to ask for agreement. The preposition *con* is preferred, though *su* can appear in some regions (e.g., *sei d'accordo su questa proposta?*). When speaking to someone you don’t know well or to a superior, switch to the formal form: *Lei è d'accordo con questa proposta?* Also, Italians often soften the question with a brief pause or a friendly tone to keep the conversation collaborative.
