Key Grammar Structures
-
Quanti chilometri ho fatto soltanto per il panorama?
➔ Use of "quanti" as an interrogative adjective and the passato prossimo tense.
➔ "Quanti" means "how many". "Ho fatto" is the passato prossimo of "fare" (to do/make). It expresses an action completed in the past that has relevance to the present.
-
E più di un milione di volte ho sbagliato per arrivare a te
➔ Use of "più di" to express 'more than', and the infinitive phrase "per arrivare" to indicate purpose.
➔ "Più di un milione" means "more than one million". "Per arrivare" translates to "in order to arrive/to get to".
-
Sembra un po' un déjà vu, ci vediamo stasera
➔ Use of the impersonal verb "sembra" and the reflexive verb "vedersi".
➔ "Sembra" means "it seems". "Ci vediamo" is a reflexive construction meaning "we see each other" or "we will meet".
-
Io pensavo che tu mi invitassi a ballare
➔ Use of the subjunctive mood (congiuntivo) after "pensavo che" to express doubt or uncertainty.
➔ Because the speaker "thought that" something might happen, but it's not certain, the subjunctive "invitassi" is used. If the speaker knew for sure they were being invited, the indicative mood would be used.
-
Ma poi meno male che qui è tutto chiuso
➔ Use of the expression "meno male che" to express relief or gratitude.
➔ "Meno male che" literally means "less bad that", but it's used to mean "thank goodness" or "luckily".
-
Restiamo a parlare e mi dici che tu vorresti scappare
➔ Use of "vorresti" - the conditional form of "volere", expressing a desire or a polite request.
➔ "Vorresti" means "you would like" or "you would want". It's a more polite way of expressing a desire than using the indicative form.
-
Vieni via con me
➔ Imperative form of "venire" and use of the particle "via".
➔ "Vieni" is the imperative of "venire" (to come), meaning "come". "Via" here intensifies the meaning, suggesting 'come away' or 'come along'.
