使い方のコツ
Though technically a noun or verb, 'accord' often functions as a descriptor of state (e.g., 'in accord'). It is most common in formal political contexts or academic writing to show consistency.
よくある間違い
Avoid saying 'with accord to'; the correct prepositional phrase is 'in accord with'. Also, 'of my own accord' should not be confused with 'by myself'.
