Key Grammar Structures

  • they're practically Animus you see the bony sloping foreheads the huge primitive teeth

    ➔ Present continuous used as a generalization, descriptive adjectives

    "they're" is a contraction of 'they are', functioning here to describe a characteristic. The string of adjectives – **"bony", "sloping", "huge", "primitive"** – provides detailed imagery.

  • no it won't help they're my family

    ➔ Future with 'will' for prediction/spontaneity, possessive pronoun

    "it won't help" uses the contraction **"won't"** (will not) to express a negative prediction. **"they're my family"** demonstrates the possessive pronoun 'my' indicating ownership/relationship.

  • he made it makes them for me like your daughter

    ➔ Past simple and present simple, simile using 'like'

    ➔ **"he made it"** is past simple, indicating a completed action. **"makes them"** is present simple, describing a habitual action. The phrase **"like your daughter"** is a simile, comparing the creation of the candies to a familial relationship.

  • oh isn't this funny

    ➔ Tag question, expressing sarcasm

    ➔ **"isn't this funny?"** is a tag question. The intonation would likely be sarcastic, implying the situation is *not* funny. It's used to challenge or express disbelief.
