1: Do you agree with me? 2: Are you in agreement with me?

Does the first sentence have the same meaning as the second one?

1: Do you agree with me?

2: Are you in agreement with me?

I've never heard "are you in agreement with me", except as an error. I would say " are we in agreement".

Hi Milky,

If that was the case, then Clive wouldn't have given me green signal. I know sentence #2 is little weird, but you cannot classify it as an error. That's what I believe. What do you

I don't think either is erroneous. #1 is definitely more direct. Whether or not that is better depends on the situation. Sometimes directness is appreciated, sometimes not.

Hi ScratchThat,

Thanks a lot for your help. Please clarify your red statement.

I do believe saying "are we not in disagreement" makes the mostest sense of them all.
