Key Grammar Structures
-
눈빛에로 알 수 있었나
➔ Particle 에 (to, at, in) used with 로 (by means of, with) - suggesting a means or direction. Question form -나/-(으)나?
➔ The sentence asks "Could I know through your eyes?". "눈빛" (eyes) is followed by "에로", indicating that the knowledge or understanding comes *from* or *by means of* the eyes. The ending "-나" makes it a question.
-
소망이 들렸을 거 know
➔ -(으)ㄹ 거(ㅅ)이다 future tense conjecture. The use of "know" is a direct borrowing/Konglish.
➔ This translates to something like "I know you probably heard the wish." The "-(으)ㄹ 거(ㅅ)이다" implies a guess or conjecture about something in the future or based on current evidence. "Know" is used in a colloquial way, almost as an affirmation.
-
오늘이 제일 빛날 테니까
➔ -(으)ㄹ 테니까: expressing intention/reason for a suggestion or command. Implies a strong belief or expectation about the future.
➔ This translates to "Because today will shine the brightest." The "-(으)ㄹ 테니까" ending signifies that the following statement is the reason or basis for what was said before (likely, to enjoy the present moment).
-
늘 함께 해줘 지날 Golden time
➔ -아/어/여 주다 (to do something *for* someone), combined with -아/어/여 달라 (request to do something for someone). Use of adjective 지나다 (to pass) in future tense with modifier ending -ㄹ
➔ This roughly translates to "Please always be with me through the passing Golden Time." "함께 해줘" (hamkke haejwo) is a request for someone to be together, from 하다 (to do) + -아/어/여 주다 (doing something for someone's benefit). "지날 Golden Time" refers to the Golden Time that will pass.
