Key Grammar Structures
-
Con tus besos me haces sentir bien
➔ Use of "hacer" to express causation: "me haces sentir" (you make me feel).
➔ The verb "hacer" followed by an infinitive expresses causing someone to do something. Here, "me haces sentir" literally translates to "you make me feel."
-
Se me hace que ya tengo con quién
➔ Impersonal expression "se me hace que" + subjunctive (implicitly used, though not overtly conjugated here).
➔ "Se me hace que" expresses an opinion or impression. Although the verb following "que" isn't conjugated in the subjunctive, the feeling of doubt or subjectivity that the phrase conveys leans towards its typical use, suggesting 'it seems to me that'.
-
Llevarte a luna o bajártela ¿Dónde?
➔ Use of infinitive "llevarte"/"bajártela" to express a hypothetical action.
➔ The use of infinitives here creates a sense of possibility and willingness, as if asking where the person wants to be taken or what they want to be brought down for them.
-
Tú quieras, m'hija, sabes por ti pelearé
➔ Use of subjunctive "quieras" in a subordinate clause expressing a wish or desire. Future tense "pelearé" indicating a future action.
➔ "Quieras" is the subjunctive form of "querer", used because it follows an implied conditional or wish. "Pelearé" is the future simple of "pelear", stating a promise or intention to fight.
-
Completas mi vida como un libro
➔ Use of "como" to express comparison. You complete my life just like a book does.
➔ "Como" is used here to compare the act of the person completing the speaker's life to the completeness a book provides. This is a simile.
-
Nada es mejor que acariciarte
➔ Comparative structure: "Nada es mejor que" (Nothing is better than).
➔ This phrase establishes a comparison implying that caressing the subject of the song is the best possible experience.
-
La piel se me enchina
➔ Reflexive verb used to describe a physical reaction: "se me enchina" (my skin gets goosebumps).
➔ The reflexive pronoun "se" indicates that the action affects the subject. The indirect object pronoun "me" clarifies whose skin is affected.
-
Por el oído dices cosillas
➔ Use of "por" to indicate the means or way something is done (through the ear).
➔ "Por el oído" specifies that the words are spoken into the ear, emphasizing the intimacy and secrecy of the communication.
