Grammar:
-
Do you think I'd really choose it
➔ 条件句 (第二类型): 假设情况。
➔ 使用过去虚拟语气 ('I'd choose') 来表达一种假设的选择。暗示说话者实际上并没有选择'它'。
-
If you did nothin' wrong
➔ 双重否定 (非标准): "nothin' wrong" 代替 "anything wrong"。
➔ 这是一种口语化/非正式的说话方式。在标准英语中,应该是 "If you didn't do anything wrong"。双重否定强调了没有不当行为。
-
Tell him that his cowgirl is gone
➔ 间接引语。
➔ 这句话报告了某人应该告诉“他”的内容。“that”在非正式口语中是可选的。
-
We turn it but say it was fun
➔ 使用 'but' 来对比两个动作。
➔ 虽然描述的动作是消极的 (“turn it”),但说话者声称结果仍然是积极的。这突出了歌手的反叛性格。
-
It's not her fault you're leavin'
➔ 从句中省略 'that'。
➔ 'that' 是可以理解的,但被省略了: "It's not her fault *that* you're leaving." 在非正式口语和写作中很常见。
-
You were born to be the one To hold the hand of the man Who flies too close to the sun
➔ 关系子句 (who, to)
➔ "Who flies too close to the sun" 是一个关系子句,修饰 'the man',添加关于他的更多信息。'to hold' 中的 'to' 是不定式动词短语的一部分,表示目的。
-
Doesn't really make for the past
➔ 短语动词 'make for' 意思是 '有助于' 或 '创造'。
➔ 这句话表达了所描述的场景(乡村歌手孤独的旅程)无助于或创造出一种“过去”的感觉(也许是浪漫化或期望的过去)。
