Acordé

Acordé is the first-person singular preterite form of the Spanish verb acordar, meaning “I agreed” or “I arranged.” It is used to report that the speaker made an agreement, decision, or arrangement in the past. The verb can take a direct object and can introduce a content clause with que to express what was agreed, or be used with con to indicate with whom the agreement was reached.

Common constructions include acordar algo con alguien (to agree on something with someone) and acordar que + clause (to agree that …). Examples: “Acordé contigo que nos veríamos a las tres.” “Acordé un descuento con la empresa.” The noun ac-гuerdo denotes the result of the agreement.

Acordar also carries a broader sense of “to decide” or “to settle” in formal or organizational contexts, as in “La junta acordó implementar la estrategia.” It is important to distinguish acordar from acordarse de, which means “to remember” and is reflexive; the latter is not about forming an agreement.

In usage, acordé appears in narrative past tense and in reported speech or direct quotations. There is no separate, widely recognized entry of Acordé as a proper noun; if encountered as a name, it would be context-specific rather than a general term.
