When to Use Concur?

When you concur, you agree with someone about something or let them know you approve. "I concur" is a formal (and sometimes humorous) way of saying "I agree!" or "I hear that!" Also, two events that happen at the same time can be said to concur.

How do you use concur in a sentence?

Concur sentence example
  1. "Do you concur with my three conditions?" the warrior asked in a husky voice. ...
  2. The Senate refused to concur in the amendment and the whole measure was lost. ...
  3. After reading this, I decided I concur .

Why do people say concur instead of agree?

To "agree", as I understand it, is to believe that that a person's decision, opinion, or what have you is correct. To "concur", on the other hand, would mean that you came to the same opinion/conclusion on your own.
