معنی
Asking for confirmation of a deal.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Merchant's Word' (Купеческое слово) is a historical concept where a verbal agreement was more binding than a written one. Saying 'Договорились' taps into this deep-seated value of verbal integrity. In the 90s, 'Договориться' often had a darker connotation of 'reaching an understanding' with authorities or unofficial structures to bypass rules. Young Russians often use English loanwords like 'Окей' or 'Го' (Go), but 'Договорились' remains the standard for serious plans. In villages, an agreement is often sealed with a small drink (могорыч). The word 'Договорились' is the signal to start the celebration.
The Nod
When saying 'Договорились?', a single firm nod of the head makes you sound much more native.
Don't use for facts
If someone says 'It's raining', don't say 'Договорились'. It sounds like you are agreeing to make it rain.

Intonation matters

The Handshake
In Russia, men usually shake hands when they say this. Women often just nod or smile.
