You will hear this phrase frequently in cafes in Buenos Aires.

Perguntas frequentes
6 perguntasNo, 'acuerdo' is a noun here. You must use the verb 'estar'.
Not at all! It is the standard polite way to disagree.
No, 'acuerdo' is a masculine noun and stays the same regardless of who is speaking.
'Discrepo' is much more formal and used in writing or formal debates.
Add 'en absoluto' or 'para nada' at the end: 'No estoy de acuerdo para nada.'
It's better to use 'No es verdad' or 'Te equivocas' for facts. This is for opinions.
