"אני לא מסכימה, אין הסכמה."

Translation: I don't agree, there isn't an agreement.

[Julian801899]

What is the difference between הסכמה (introduced here) and הסכם (introduced in Abstract Objects 1)?

[radagastthebrown]

ll הסכם is a treaty or an accord, usually a signed document between two or more parties. הסכמה is the action noun of להסכים, i.e. to agree.

[houthakker72]

Could this also be interpreted as a kind of rhetorical conditional, as if:

If I don't agree, there is no agreement
or
unless I agree, there is no agreement
without my agreement, there is no agreement

etc ?

[AlmogL]

No, grammatically they are two unrelated sentences. I think the implication is: I don't agree, therefore there is no understanding.

[JessicaDellEra]

Rubin, I interpreted it the same way. I think the voice's intonation implies conditionality: I don't agree? [Then] there is no agreement.

Runon sentence?

[Catistsk]

To be correct, the sentence needs a semicolon, not a comma.

[rBhr5]

Yes, I agree. DL does this a lot. Perhaps English is fussier than Hebrew in this regard (or perhaps it's just DL).

[xerostomus]

Yes yes yes! Good point! Run-on sentence. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentence_clause_structure

Comma splice

[JosAdolfoP]

The actress seldom pronounces the h- in many words. Is colloquial pronunciation like that?

[TaraPride]

From what I'm told, it is pretty common to minimize the "h" sound.

[marti_MG]

The intonation does sound like the agreement between the speaker and her interlocutor depends on her agreeing or not, but I'm curious to know if this could be a 'work-around' for the obligatory ש, meaning what if she and her interlocutor don't agree on the existence of an agreement, as in

A says: "אין הסכמה "

B replies: "אני לא מסכימה שאין הסכמה"

the lesson uses a comma (better to use semicolon or even a period?) to separate 2 clauses otherwise linked by ש.

[Michael951706]

I thought the exact same thing. DL should have required a "ש"

[marti_MG]

sorry, no community of yay-sayers, not yet at least!
I was ONLY speculating based on the 'perceived intonation', but the text does NOT require a "ש" (nor a metatarsal, for that matter...).

(since) "I don't agree, there is no deal/agreement"

but again, i suggest:

A says: "אין הסכמה "

B replies: "אני לא מסכימה, יש הסכמה"
(i don't agree (that there is no agreement, in fact) there is an agreement!)
A: אין
B: יש
A: אין
B: יש
