How to Say ‘What message should we write?’ in Mexican Spanish

¿Qué mensaje le escribimos?

keh mehn-SAH-heh leh ehs-kree-BEE-mohs

[keh mehn-SAH-heh leh ehs-kree-BEE-mohs]

💬 Usage Tip: Spanish uses the plain present tense to make an offer or suggestion: ¿le escribimos? works as "should we write?". Try it as ¿Le traemos agua? "Shall we bring you water?"
