How to Say ‘We didn't cross a bridge, did we?’ in Simplified Chinese
我们没过桥吧?
wǒ men méi guò qiáo ba
[waw-men may guò qiáo ba]
💬 Usage Tip: 吧 at the end turns a statement into "…right?", checking for agreement rather than asking outright. It lets you challenge a charge without sounding confrontational.
