Notice that here neither person used the word 'agree', yet it's clear that they do agree.
请注意，没有人使用“agree”这个词，但很显然他们都是同意的。
You can say 'I know' or 'I know, right?' to express agreement.
你可以说“我知道”或“我知道，对吧？” 表达同意。
Tone is important here; you need to sound enthusiastic when using this phrase.
语调在这里很重要；使用这个短语时，你需要听起来很热情。
If you say 'I know, right', then it doesn't work.
如果你说“我知道，是吧”，那么其实并不行。
But, with correct intonation: 'I know, right?' it works.
但是，如果语调正确的话：“我知道，对吧？”，就可以了。
You heard one more phrase to express agreement here.
你在这里听到了表示同意的另一句话。
Do you remember?
你还记得吗？
You heard 'I'm with you on that one.' 'I'm with you' is another way to say 'I agree with you.' It's slightly more conversational; you probably wouldn't use it in writing, and definitely not in formal writing.
你听到了“我同意你所说的”。“我同意你所说的”是说“我同意你”的另一种方式。它比较对话性；你可能不会以书面形式使用它，而且绝对不能在正式的写作中使用它。

But that's not the only form of agreement that popped up in that conversation.
但这并不是对话中出现的唯一一个表达同意的形式。
Did you hear the other one?
你听到了另一个吗？
You heard: 'great minds think alike'.
你听到了：“英雄所见略同”。
Consider this for a moment.
考虑一下这个。
What do you think it means?
你觉得这个是什么意思？
Well, in the literal sense it means 'we're both really clever' but it's just a humorous way to say that you've both reached the same conclusion.
好的，从字面意义上来看，意思是“我们俩都非常聪明”，但这只是一种幽默的方式来说你们两个都得出了相同的结论。
It's a light-hearted saying, so you can try it out with your friends.
这个是很轻松的表达，所以你可以和朋友一起尝试一下。

你怎么看？
Without a doubt.
毫无疑问。
The first phrase you heard here was 'I was thinking the same thing.' There are other variations on this, like 'I was thinking the same' or 'I had the same thought.' Did you also notice the phrase 'you can say that again'?
你在这里听到的第一个短语是“我在想同样的事情”。还有其他的变体，例如“我也这么想”或“我在也这么觉得”。你是否也注意到了“ you can say that again”这个短语？
Does it really 
mean you want the person to repeat what they've just said?
它的意思是不是你希望对方重复他们刚才说的话？
Of course not.
当然不是。
You don't really want the other person to repeat the words; it's just an informal way to say that you totally agree.
你并不是希望别人重复自己说的话；这是说你完全同意的一种非正式的表达方式。
Similarly, 'without a doubt' expresses complete agreement.
同样地，“毫无疑问”表示完全同意。
You can also say 'no doubt', which has a similar idea.
你也可以说“毫无疑问”，意思是一样的。
But what if there is a doubt in your mind?
但是，如果你有疑问的话，该怎么办呢？

You can use 'I guess you're right' and 'I suppose so' when you agree that someone is right, but you're not happy with the situation.
当你同意某人是正确的，但你对这个情况并不满意的时候，你可以使用“我猜你是对的”和“我想是的”。

A good phrase to express this is 'I agree with you up to a point'.
表达这一点的一个很好的短语是“我在一定程度上同意你的观点”。
You could also use 'you've got a point there but …' This is a good way to acknowledge the other person's point of view while also showing that your perspective is at least slightly different.

This is a useful tactic for business and negotiations: you try to find common ground first and then address the points of disagreement.

Talking of business, which of the phrases you've learned so far are more appropriate in formal settings, say with a colleague or a client?

Well, like many things it depends on the context and the tone.
