Key Grammar Structures

• ¿Por qué visto caro, eh?

  ➔ Interrogative pronoun + verb + adjective

  ➔ Uses the interrogative pronoun "¿Por qué?" (Why?) followed by the verb "visto" (I dress) and the adjective "caro" (expensive). This is a direct question about the reason for dressing expensively.

• Tú no ves que yo soy caro?

  ➔ Indirect question + ser + adjective

  ➔ The phrase "¿Tú no ves que...?" (Don't you see that...?) introduces an indirect question. "Soy caro" (I am expensive) uses the verb "ser" to express a characteristic or inherent quality.

• De lejos se nota que mi flow es caro, eh

  ➔ Impersonal "se" + verb + que + clause

  ➔ "Se nota" (it's noticeable) uses the impersonal "se", indicating that the action is performed by an unspecified subject. The "que" introduces a subordinate clause explaining what is noticeable.

• Que con nadie me comparo

  ➔ Relative pronoun "que" + verb + negative adverbial phrase

  ➔ "Que con nadie me comparo" (That I don't compare myself with anyone) uses the relative pronoun "que" (that) and the negative adverbial phrase "con nadie" (with nobody) to emphasize the uniqueness and incomparability of the speaker.

• Las regla' yo las rompo' y las reparo, eh

  ➔ Definite article + noun + pronoun + verb + conjunction + pronoun + verb

  ➔ Uses a structure with a definite article ("Las" - The) + noun ("reglas" - rules), followed by a pronoun that duplicates the object ("las") before the verbs "rompo" (I break) and "reparo" (I fix). Object pronoun doubling is common in some Spanish dialects for emphasis.

• ¿Qué carajo' te importa a ti?

  ➔ Interrogative pronoun + noun (vulgar) + indirect object pronoun + verb + prepositional phrase

  ➔ "¿Qué carajo' te importa a ti?" (What the hell do you care?) is an emphatic question using the vulgar noun "carajo" (hell/fuck) to intensify the question. The indirect object pronoun "te" (to you) indicates who is affected by the verb "importa" (matters). "A ti" reinforces the indirect object.

• Criticar sin dar ejemplo, qué jodí'a manía

  ➔ Infinitive phrase + preposition + verb + noun + adjective + noun

  ➔ "Criticar sin dar ejemplo" (To criticize without setting an example) is an infinitive phrase acting as a noun. "Qué jodí'a manía" (What a shitty habit) is an exclamation using "qué" (what) followed by an adjective and noun, expressing disapproval.
