Side (with)

Answer:

AGREE

Hint:

Think of a word meaning to concur or be in harmony, often used when someone shares your opinion. It starts with "A" and rhymes with "free."

Explanation:

The word "side" here hints at "agree" because "side with" means to support or align with someone. The clue plays on the phrase "side with," where "with" is included in parentheses to signal it’s part of the answer’s meaning. So, "side (with)" directly points to "agree," as in taking someone’s side.
