concur
Significado: To agree with an opinion, decision, or course of action; also, to happen at the same time or coincide.
Concur is the formal equivalent of 'agree' and is standard in professional, legal, and academic communication. In legal contexts, a judge who concurs issues a separate opinion agreeing with the majority's conclusion but for different reasons. The phrase 'I concur' has become somewhat iconic in professional settings as a crisp way of signalling agreement. It can also mean to coincide — events that concur happen simultaneously. Common collocations include 'concur with,' 'concur that,' and 'concurring opinion.'
