≈Synonyms and antonyms
?Which word?
agree with, agree to, agree on
You agree with a person or an opinion, agree to a proposal or request, and agree on or about a matter. 'Agree' never takes a direct object in these senses.
व्यक्ति या विचार से सहमत होने के लिए agree with, प्रस्ताव या अनुरोध मानने के लिए agree to, और किसी मुद्दे पर सहमति के लिए agree on या about आता है। इन अर्थों में agree के बाद सीधे object नहीं आता।
The with/to/on preposition set is a regular error-spotting item.
