Thread: This Agreement

In my opinion and based on the definition of contract I have found, from the English perspective the only difference between a contract and an agreement is that a contract is always legally enforceable or binding. Whereas agreements reached verbally can be breached without legal consequences. Two people can agree to a join action but unless there is a legal instrument supporting and evidencing this agreement no legal actions can be taken in the event of a breach. In the example brought by margieben, it is obvious we can use the term contract or agreement, under the understanding that said agreement is legally biding.
I look forward to some feedbacks or comments on the contrary as one never stops leaning
Best regards
