Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking countries ‘de acuerdo’ is the go‑to phrase for agreement, but regional shortcuts exist: Spaniards often say ‘vale’, while Mexicans may use ‘está bien’ or ‘okey’. Adding ‘contigo’ or ‘con…’ clarifies who you agree with, e.g., ‘Estoy de acuerdo con María’. Remember that *estar* is used, not *ser*, because agreement is seen as a temporary stance rather than an inherent trait.
