agreement
Minds meeting together
Agreement is a state of harmony or accord between parties.
When people reach an agreement, they've arrived at a shared understanding or decision: We finally came to an agreement about the terms.
An agreement can be a formal arrangement—a contract, treaty, or settlement.
In grammar, agreement refers to correspondence between words: subjects and verbs agree in number.
There was general agreement that changes were needed.
