Key Grammar Structures
-
Même s'il doit tourner court
➔ Subjunctive after "même si"
➔ "Même si" (even if) is followed by the subjunctive mood when expressing doubt or uncertainty about the condition. Here, "doive" is the subjunctive form of "devoir".
-
Ce n'est pas un problème
➔ Negative construction with "ne...pas"
➔ This is a basic negative sentence. "Ne...pas" is the standard way to negate a verb in French.
-
Au fond, tu es pour
➔ Use of the preposition "pour" to indicate support or agreement
➔ Here, "pour" means "in favor of". The expression implies that deep down, the person agrees with or supports something.
-
Rêver des fois, c'est concret
➔ Impersonal construction with "c'est"
➔ "C'est" is used here in an impersonal way to introduce a general statement. "Rêver des fois" (dreaming sometimes) acts as the subject of the sentence.
-
Kiffe un peu de sincérité
➔ Imperative mood with reflexive verb (slang)
➔ "Kiffe" is a slang verb meaning "to enjoy". Here, it's used in the imperative mood, though the reflexive pronoun "se" is omitted which is common in colloquial speech. It means "Enjoy a bit of sincerity!"
-
Qu'ont pas toujours le temps
➔ Relative pronoun "que" + negation "ne ... pas" + omission of "ne"
➔ "Que" is a relative pronoun referring back to "les absents". The phrase "n'ont pas toujours le temps" means "don't always have the time", but the colloquial form omits the "ne". This omission of "ne" is very common in spoken French, especially in informal settings. Therefore, "Qu'ont pas toujours le temps" is a shorter, informal version of "Qui n'ont pas toujours le temps".
-
Il te plaira d'élargir la tribu
➔ Impersonal construction with "plaire à quelqu'un" followed by an infinitive
➔ "Plaire à quelqu'un" means "to please someone" or "to be pleasing to someone". The structure "Il te plaira de + infinitive" means "It will please you to..." or "You will find it pleasing to...". This construction emphasizes the enjoyment or satisfaction derived from the action.
-
De sortir du système
➔ Use of "de" before an infinitive after a prepositional phrase
➔ Here, the verb "sortir" (to go out/to leave) is in the infinitive form and is preceded by "de" after the prepositional phrase "du système". While not all prepositional phrases require "de" before the infinitive, many do, and it's a point of grammar that learners often struggle with. The phrase "sortir du système" translates to "to get out of the system"
