Questions & Answers about Il n'y a plus d'accord ? Si, l'ambassadeur le signe demain.
Why does the answer start with Si instead of Oui?
Why is it d'accord instead of un accord?
Do you pronounce the 's' at the end of plus in this sentence?
No, the 's' is silent here. When plus is used as a negative word meaning 'no longer' or 'no more' (as in ne... plus), the 's' is not pronounced.
What does the le in le signe refer to, and why is it placed there?
le is a direct object pronoun meaning 'it', and it replaces l'accord (the agreement) to avoid repeating the word. In French, object pronouns are placed directly before the verb they belong to, which is why it comes before signe.
Why does the sentence use the present tense signe if the action happens demain (tomorrow)?
Just like in English (where we can say 'he is signing it tomorrow'), French often uses the present tense to talk about a scheduled or certain event in the near future. You could also use the near future (va le signer), but the present tense is very common and natural here.
