Key Grammar Structures
-
La raison leur a fait tourner la tête
➔ Causative verb construction (faire + infinitive)
➔ This structure, "faire + infinitive" (here, "a fait tourner"), is used to express that someone or something causes an action to happen. In this sentence, "la raison" (reason) caused "leur tête" (their head) to "tourner" (turn).
-
Quand je t'ai pas, regarde-moi dans les yeux
➔ Imperative mood with object pronouns and informal negation
➔ The verb "regarde" is in the imperative mood, giving a command. "Moi" is a stressed object pronoun used after the imperative for "me". "Je t'ai pas" is an informal negation of "je ne t'ai pas", where the "ne" is omitted, common in spoken French.
-
Tu veux nous ressembler mais t'as rien dans les yeux
➔ Verb 'vouloir' + infinitive and negative pronoun 'rien'
➔ "Tu veux ressembler" uses the verb "vouloir" (to want) followed by an infinitive ("ressembler" - to resemble), expressing a desire. "Rien" is a negative pronoun meaning "nothing", often used with "ne" (which is omitted here, "t'as rien" being informal for "tu n'as rien").
-
Un flash volumineux, tu vas te manger une droite
➔ Near Future (futur proche) and idiomatic pronominal verb
➔ "Tu vas te manger" uses the *futur proche* (near future), formed with the present tense of "aller" (to go) followed by an infinitive ("se manger"). "Se manger" is a pronominal verb used idiomatically here, meaning "to take" or "to receive" something unpleasant (like a punch, "une droite").
-
Choc des familles, elle est keuf à nos trousses et c'est pas ça qui nous freine
➔ Cleft sentence (C'est... qui) for emphasis
➔ The construction "c'est... qui" (or "ce n'est pas... qui" in the negative) is a *cleft sentence* used to emphasize a specific part of the sentence, here "ça" (that) as the subject of "nous freine" (slows us down). The "ne" is omitted in "c'est pas", common informally.
-
Je suis posé dans mon lit tel un commande GTA
➔ Simile using 'tel un'
➔ "Tel un" (like a / such as a) is used to draw a comparison or simile, indicating that the subject ("Je") is "posé" (relaxed/chilling, a past participle used adjectivally) in a manner similar to "un commande GTA" (a GTA command/character).
-
Les épreuves ne font pas de toi un homme
➔ Negative sentence with 'faire de X Y' construction
➔ "Ne font pas" is a standard negation (ne... pas). The expression "faire de X Y" means "to make X into Y" or "to turn X into Y". Here, "les épreuves" (trials) do not make "toi" (you) "un homme" (a man).
-
Sans sucer de bite, on a choqué une ville
➔ Preposition 'sans' + infinitive
➔ The preposition "sans" (without) is followed by an infinitive verb ("sucer" - to suck), indicating the absence of an action. This construction is common in French to express "without doing something".
-
En écoutant mes dires, il se demande si j'ai vendu mon âme
➔ Gerund (En + present participle) and pronominal verb + subordinate clause
➔ "En écoutant" is a gerund (formed with "en" + present participle), indicating an action happening simultaneously with another ("while listening"). "Il se demande si" uses the pronominal verb "se demander" (to wonder) followed by a subordinate clause introduced by "si" (if), expressing doubt or inquiry.
