Breakdown of Acordamos hacer el seguimiento mañana.
Questions & Answers about Acordamos hacer el seguimiento mañana.
Here, acordamos means we agreed.
It is the preterite form of acordar, so it refers to a completed agreement in the past.
- acordar = to agree
- acordamos = we agreed
Be aware that acordamos can also look like the present form (we agree) because -ar verbs have the same nosotros ending in the present and preterite. Context tells you which one is meant. In this sentence, it normally means we agreed.
Spanish often leaves out subject pronouns because the verb ending already shows who the subject is.
- acordamos already tells you the subject is we
- so nosotros is unnecessary unless you want emphasis or contrast
- Acordamos hacer el seguimiento mañana. = We agreed to follow up tomorrow.
- Nosotros acordamos hacer el seguimiento mañana. = We agreed to follow up tomorrow.
This sounds more emphatic, like we agreed, not someone else.
