Alisha: Wait, you don't agree with me?
L: No, I said, I couldn't agree more. That means I completely agree with you.

But it 'can' be confusing for a language learner.

In this series on the Confusing Structures in the English Language, we will discuss these very structures so that the next time Leonard says 'he couldn't agree more,' or 'he couldn't care less' or some such phrase, you'd know exactly what he is saying.
