Bedeutung
Reaching an understanding.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Russia, verbal agreements are often seen as more flexible and 'human' than rigid written contracts. Saying 'Давайте договоримся' is an appeal to mutual trust. In markets in Uzbekistan or Kazakhstan, this phrase is the essential 'key' to start the social ritual of bargaining. It's expected and respected. In modern Russian business, this phrase is used to move past a deadlock. It signals a willingness to compromise for the sake of the partnership. Young Russians use the shortened 'Договорились' or 'Ок, договорились' constantly in messaging apps like Telegram to confirm plans.
The 'Deal' Closer

Watch the Register
Don't use 'Давай' (informal) with your teacher or a government official. Stick to 'Давайте'.
