What is the appropriate meaning of the word accord

English[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Middle English accorden, acorden, borrowed from Old French acorder (compare modern French accord and accorder), from Vulgar Latin *accordāre, from Latin concordāre via suffix substitution (with Latin ad-), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ḱḗr ~ *ḱr̥d-, and thus distantly related to English heart (via Proto-Germanic *hertô).

MORE ABOUT ACCORD

What does accord mean?

To accord is to agree or be in harmony with someone or something.

Accord is usually used formally to mean to work together. It is often used in official decrees, analysis of public figures, and governmental affairs.

Related to this, an accord is an agreement. In particular when nations agree to something, we often say they have reached an accord, as with the Paris Climate Accords.

To accord can also mean to grant or bestow. Oftentimes an item that is accorded is something that will strengthen a relationship or agreement, as with according someone praise or forgiveness.

Example: Failure to reach an accord will mean the battle will continue for years to come.

Where does accord come from?

The first records of the term accord come from the 1100s. It comes from the Latin accordāre. In Latin, the term cord means “heart” or “mind.” In the same way, accord means “to add heart” or “lend mind,” as one does when they accord.

One of the most common uses of accord is in the phrase of one’s own accord, meaning “voluntarily” or  “done without being asked to.” If you do something of your own will, you are showing a desire to accord with those who benefit from your action. If you empty the dishwasher of your own accord, you’re showing the people you live with a desire to help take care of your home, which can create accord among everyone you live with.
