La réponse en bref
Boys vs girls: what does "I'm down" mean?
"I'm down" means "Yes, I want to do that." People use it to agree to a plan, usually with friends. It doesn't mean "I'm sad." That meaning needs a different form, such as "I'm feeling down." With friends, use "I'm down" or "I'm in." At work or with people you don't know well, "Sounds good" is the safer choice.

Comprendre chaque réplique
-
I'm down. Ton: Casual slang, friends only
Use it to say yes to a plan in texts and chats with friends. Don't use it with your manager, a client, or in formal writing.
“Yeah. I'm down.”
-
I'm in. Ton: Casual and clear
Use it for a quick, easy yes when someone invites a group to do something. It's a little less slangy than "I'm down," but it still sounds relaxed, so keep it for friends and friendly coworkers.
“Okay. I'm in.”
-
Sounds good. Ton: Polite, works anywhere
Use it to accept a plan or suggestion with friends, coworkers, or strangers. It's the safest choice at work. It agrees with the plan but doesn't show much excitement.
“Sounds good.”
-
Count me in. Ton: Friendly and keen
Use it when people are making a list or asking who wants to join. It sounds a little more eager than "I'm in." It isn't the best reply to a one-to-one invitation from your boss.
-
I'm up for it. Ton: Casual, open to trying
Use it when you're happy to try something, especially an activity that's new or a bit hard. Don't use it when you only mean "that time works for me."
-
Works for me. Ton: Neutral and practical
Use it to agree to a time, place, or detail. It's fine at work and with friends. It sounds practical, not excited.

À corriger
I'm down. (meaning "I feel sad")Formulation conseillée I'm feeling down. / I'm a bit down today.
When "I'm down" is the reply to a plan, people hear yes. To talk about a sad mood, use "feeling down" or add words like "today" or "a bit." This is the same mix-up Hana makes in the Short.
-
À corriger
I'm down to the party.Formulation conseillée I'm down for the party. / I'm down to go to the party.
Use "down for" before a noun and "down to" before a verb. "Down to the party" sounds like a direction, not agreement.
-
À corriger
Dear Ms. Lee, I'm down for the meeting on Monday.Formulation conseillée Dear Ms. Lee, Monday works for me. / That sounds good.
"I'm down" is slang for friends. In emails at work or with people you don't know well, use a neutral reply such as "Sounds good" or "Works for me."
