Concord atau agreement merupakan persesuaian unsur-unsur pembentuk suatu kata, frase, atau kalimat sesuai dengan tata bahasa yang berlaku.

Persesuaian kata ganti orang (Concord of pronoun)

    (Concord: Billy-He)
2. The Women under the tree waved her hand.
    (Concord: The woman-Her)

Concord of tense (persesuaian tenses)
Dalam bahasa Inggris. Bentuk kata kerja senantiasa mengikuti kata keterangan waktu yang mengikutinya.
Contoh:
1) They go to the movies every week.
     (Concord: go-every week)
2) They went to the movie last week.
     (Concord: went-last week)

Subject - Verb agreement (persesuaian subjek-predikat)
Selain mengikuti kata keterangan waktu, bentuk kata kerja juga mengikuti subjek dalam kalimat. Subjek dalam suatu kalimat dapat berupa kata/frase singular (tunggal) ataupub plural (jamak).
