Bedeutung
To reach a mutual understanding or decision.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Spain, people often use the verb 'quedar' (to stay/remain) as a shorthand for 'ponerse de acuerdo para verse' (to agree to meet). In many Latin American countries, 'ponerse de acuerdo' is used very frequently in business to emphasize the need for harmony before starting a project. The concept of 'acuerdo' is deeply tied to social harmony. Disagreeing openly is often softened by saying 'tenemos que ponernos de acuerdo' rather than saying 'no' directly.
Use with 'en'
Always use 'en' to specify the topic: 'Nos ponemos de acuerdo EN el viaje'.
Reflexive Pronouns
Don't forget the 'me, te, se, nos'. Without them, the sentence sounds broken.
