Agree versus Completely Agree
Hi! What is the difference in meaning between the two sentences? Situation: You say to someone "Paris is the most beautiful city in the world". Thanks, Fulvio
1. I completely agree with you.
2. I agree with you.
Top answer
"completely" suggests wholehearted agreement, enthusiastic agreement. There is not even a small part of the statement that I don't agree with. Otherwise, the meaning is the same.

0There's no real difference. I suppose 'completely' adds a little bit of emphasis in casual English.
But I see 'completely agree' in a lot of the formal essays that non-native speakers post here, and my advice is that it should be avoided there.
