Signification
Formally agreeing with an idea.
Contexte culturel
In the intellectual 'Adda' culture of Kolkata, agreement is often followed by a long explanation of *why* you agree, to show you've understood the depth of the point. In Bangladeshi corporate culture, saying 'Ami ekmot' to a senior is a vital sign of respect and hierarchy alignment. Scholars often use 'Ekmot poshon kora' in written theses to align their work with established theories. The word 'Shohomot' (concurrence) has become a meme-like way to show quick agreement on Facebook groups.
Add 'puro-puri' for emphasis
If you really agree, say 'Ami puro-puri ekmot' (I completely agree).
Avoid 'kori'
Never say 'Ami ekmot kori'. It's a common English-speaker mistake. Just 'Ami ekmot' is enough.
