"Do we give a tip?"

Translation: 我们给不给小费？

[JChien6953]

I said “我们给小费吗？” Should this be correct?

[Keith_APP]

It's correct too.

[n3uromante]

typing 我们给小费吗 as a solution results in duo giving this:
“You missed a space.
我们 给小费吗"

Still counts it as passed but seems broken tbh.

[RobinThor]

Same happened to me. This is absurd.

[firerosearien]

So why the verb-bu-verb?

[Alice807485]

It is just another way to ask a question, instead of using 吗

[Pogosticksteve]

It's like "do we or do we not?". You could also say 我们给小时费吗？ Im not chinese enough to know if there is any real difference.

[DanHoebelh]

It makes it into a yes or no question.

[crantila]

Could also be 给...吗

[Rumactree]

I found myself typing:

我们必须给小费吗？

It marked it wrong but unfortunately that might just mean that duo hasn’t included 必须 in its vocabulary.

So, can I say 必须给 (as a phrase)? And does it mean what I think it means?

[Keith_APP]

It depends on how you want Duo to be precise on the meaning. 必須means Must. Certainly the meaning is more or less the same if we say Must we give a tip? but you certainly know these 2 sentences are not perfect equivalent.

[Rumactree]

Thanks, this does help.

I can’t remember why I thought the original sentence did include a must or should.

[DLCom]

Shouldn't 我们会给小费吗？ be completely correct as well? If someone asks wether they give a tip they're obviously referring to the future, now are they?

[David507004]

shouldn't this really involve 应该?
