### Verb

同意
* (transitive) to agree with (sth.); to consent to; to concur with (sth.)
    一致同意 ― yīzhì tóngyì ― to agree unanimously
       Zhè ge wǒ duōbàn tóngyì. [Pinyin]
       I agree with most of this.
    我絕不同意。／我绝不同意。 ― Wǒ juébù tóngyì. ― Under no circumstances will I agree.
       Wǒ de tàidù shì tóngyì hé zhīchí. [Pinyin]
       I am in agreement and will lend support.

#### Usage notes

Chinese learners tend to erroneously use this verb like:
    ＊我同意你。 ― Wǒ tóngyì nǐ. ― (lit.) I agree (with) you.
    ＊我跟你同意。 ― Wǒ gēn nǐ tóngyì. ― (lit.) I with you agree.
In Chinese, it is used to agree with things (opinions, ideas, plans etc), rather than persons. The first sentence above sounds incomplete, roughly like "I agree with your". Furthermore, as a transitive verb, it takes its object directly (which however might be omitted/implied), not via a preposition. To say "I agree with you" in general, one could add 看法 (kànfǎ, “view/opinion”), 觀點／观点 (guāndiǎn, “viewpoint, perspective”), or other more specific nouns.
       Wǒ tóngyì nǐ de kànfǎ. [Pinyin]
       I agree with you.
