English Translation

There’s no way she would have done such a thing.

했을 (haesseul) - This is the past tense form of the verb "하다" (to do) conjugated with the auxiliary verb "-을" to indicate that an action has occurred or will occur.

리가 (riga) - This is a particle used to indicate conjecture or possibility. It implies doubt or uncertainty about the action being mentioned.

Putting it all together, “했을 리가 없다” can be translated as “There’s no way [someone] did [something].” It implies strong disbelief or certainty that the action did not happen.
