Yes, "to be broke" is a correct structure in English. It is a commonly used phrase that means to have little or no money. It is often used informally to describe a financial situation where someone has run out of money or is experiencing a lack of funds. For example: "I can't go out to dinner tonight; I'm broke." "After paying my bills, I'm completely broke for the month." "She's been struggling with her finances and is currently broke." So, "to be broke" is a valid and widely understood expression to describe a state of financial hardship.

I'm curious what AI said. basically: Literally it should be 'to be BROKEN' ex: The phone is broken. As slang for 'having no money' to be BROKE is correct. ex. I can't afford to go out to eat; I'm broke.
