➔ "Puede que" + subjunctive (sea) expressing uncertainty; double subordinate clause with "que".
➔ The expression "Puede que" is followed by the subjunctive "sea" to convey doubt or possibility. The second "que" introduces another clause "que no puedo apagar las llamas".
-
Si tiras un dardo más, no voy a aguantar.
➔ First‑type conditional (si + present) + simple future (voy a + infinitive).
➔ "Si" introduces a real condition in the present; the result is expressed with "voy a" + infinitive to indicate a future consequence.

Mi signo de Cáncer es muy vulnerable para un Leo.

Ya no quiero ser esa burla.
➔ Use of "ya no" + infinitive to express cessation of desire; verb "querer" followed by infinitive.
