Te conjuro y te dejo prenda'o
➔ Verb conjugation in present tense (conjuro) and past participle (prenda'o) with elision.
➔ "Conjuro" is the first-person singular present indicative of the verb "conjurar" (to conjure). "Prenda'o" is a colloquial shortening of "prendido" (caught, hooked), and the apostrophe indicates elision of the 'd'.
-
Encima del stage yo olvido lo' peca'o
➔ Use of definite article with elision ('lo') and omitted 'd' in 'peca'o'.
➔ "Lo' peca'o" is a colloquial way of saying "los pecados" (the sins). The elision and omission are common in informal speech.
-
Y que to' lo' santo' tienen su pasa'o
➔ Use of 'to'' instead of 'todos' (all), use of definite articles with elision ('lo'), informal omission of 'd' in 'pasa'o'.
➔ This line uses several colloquial forms: "to'" instead of "todos", "lo' santo'" (los santos) with elision and "pasa'o" (pasado) with omission of the 'd'.
-
Que yo lágrima' suelto un puña'o
➔ Informal omission of 's' in 'lágrima's' (lágrimas) to form 'lágrima''. Use of quantifier 'un puña'o'.
➔ "Lágrima'" is a shortened form of "lágrimas" (tears), typical of informal speech. "Un puña'o" means "a handful".
-
Tacones, lunares para matar, bájale
➔ Imperative form of the verb "bajar" (bájale) with attached pronoun. Implies a command or suggestion.
➔ "Bájale" is an imperative form of the verb "bajar" (to lower, to tone down) and means something like "Tone it down" or "Cool it". The attached pronoun gives it a slightly different nuance depending on context.
-
Y to'a la' niña' tenemos tumba'o
➔ Use of 'to'a' instead of 'toda' (all) with informal omission of 'd'. Use of 'la'' instead of 'las'. Use of past participle 'tumba'o' (tumbado) with omission of 'd'.
➔ This line is full of colloquialisms. "To'a" is a shortened form of "toda" (all, feminine). "La' niña'" means "las niñas" (the girls) with elision and a missing 's'. "Tumba'o" is "tumbado" (laid down, taken down) but with the 'd' omitted, common in informal speech.
-
Uña' de Divine, ya me las han copia'o
➔ Informal omission of 's' in 'Uñas' to form 'Uña''. Use of pronominal verb 'copia'o' (copiado) with omission of 'd'. Correct use of reflexive pronoun 'me' and object pronouns 'las' in 'ya me las han copia'o'
➔ "Uña'" is the colloquial form of "Uñas" (nails). "copia'o" is 'copiado' (copied) with the omission of the 'd'. The placement of the reflexive pronoun 'me' and object pronoun 'las' before the auxiliary verb 'han' is standard in Spanish.
