English Language & Usage Asked on December 10, 2020
What does it mean and where would I use it?
If you are in a situation where a group is gathering to do something (go out for lunch, start a meeting, etc.), "Shall we?" would mean something like "Are we now all ready and is it now time to proceed with what we are here for?". (Or more simply, "Should we now proceed?", but that explains "shall" in terms of "should".)
Correct answer by Peter Eisentraut on December 10, 2020
Shall is used in questions indicating offers or suggestions.
Shall I send you the book?
Shall we go?
Answered by kiamlaluno on December 10, 2020
Shall we is a polite expression for Let’s go. A Spanish equivalent would be Vámanos.
