agree to + noun (plan, request, terms)

用法筆記

Followed by a noun that names what is being accepted (a plan, request, demand, or set of terms). Distinguish from 'agree with', which expresses shared opinion about a person or idea rather than acceptance of a proposal.

常見錯誤

❌I agree your idea.
✅I agree to your idea.
💡'agree' needs 'to' before the plan or request you accept.
❌She agreed to come the offer.
✅She agreed to the offer.
💡when the thing accepted is a noun, use 'agree to + noun', not a verb.
