Wenn alle in einer Gruppe die gleiche Meinung haben oder gleich entscheiden.
The German word "einstimmig" is an adjective meaning "unanimous" or "unison". It is made up of:
- ein = one
- Stimmig = consonant or in agreement (from Stimme meaning "voice")
So "einstimmig" literally means "with one voice."
Similar words:
- unanim (unanimous)
- einhellig (unanimous, wholehearted)
- einig (united, in agreement)
Difference:
While "einstimmig" emphasizes the idea of all agreeing "in one voice," "einhellig" and "unanim" focus more broadly on consensus or unanimity. "Einig" can mean agreement but doesn’t imply unanimity as strongly as "einstimmig".
