Key Grammar Structures

➔ Comparative Adverb + 'than' clause
➔ This sentence uses the comparative form of the adverb 'fast' ('faster') to show a comparison. The structure 'can't + verb + faster than + noun' indicates an inability to exceed a certain speed. The word being compared is **faster**.
-
Feels like we're going through the motions
➔ Present Continuous with 'like' as a preposition
➔ The phrase 'going through the motions' is an idiom meaning to perform actions mechanically, without genuine feeling. 'Like' here functions as a preposition introducing a clause describing a feeling. The verb **going** is in the present continuous tense.
-

➔ Conditional Sentence (Type 2) - 'would' + infinitive
➔ This is a hypothetical situation expressed using the conditional 'would'. 'I'd' is a contraction of 'I would'. It implies a willingness to sacrifice everything **lose** for the person being addressed.
-
You said, "Put your hands on my heart, and tell me what you feel"
➔ Reported Speech with embedded command and question
