Agree

Exactly: one hand comes up in front of the chest, the thumb up, and beats down firmly with a nod, then again a little smaller; then the hand settles.

What it is for

Agree answers someone who has just said the right thing: "Exactly!", "That's it!", "You've got it". It is short, so it fits between two lines.

The principle it shows: a beat on the stress

The hand and the head land together, fast, on the same moment, the way a speaker hits the stressed word. The second beat is smaller than the first, so the agreement settles instead of repeating.

Try this

  1. Take 0.35 seconds over the first beat instead of 0.18. A slow, thought-through agreement rather than an eager one.

    In the program: ramp ยท over 0.18 โ†’ 0.35

  2. Nod 24 degrees on the first beat instead of 14. A big, wholehearted yes.

    In the program: ramp ยท to.part:head 14 โ†’ 24

How it differs from Nod yes

Nod yes answers with the head alone. Agree adds the hand's beat, a firmer and more emphatic yes.

Works on

The two in the film above, and what the move turns on each: worked out by the build, which plays the move on each body and checks what moves. Nobody types this table.
