Why it's built this way

The notes match the numbers above.

  1. 1
    Quem sabe = maybe; it softens a hope or a suggestion.
  2. 2
    a gente viaja: spoken "we" with the 3rd-person singular verb. Subject pronouns & the spoken person system →
  3. 3
    This não negates nothing: quem sabe… não turns the idea into a friendly hint.
  4. 4
    junto = together; in speech it often stays singular, even for several people.
