Key Grammar Structures
-
¿Qué va a pasar?
➔ Future tense with 'ir a + infinitive'
➔ Expresses a near future event. "Va a pasar" means "is going to happen". This is a common way to express the future in Spanish.
-
Cuando alguien llegue a preguntar sobre lo nuestro
➔ Subjunctive after 'cuando' expressing a future event that is uncertain.
➔ The verb "llegue" is in the subjunctive mood because it follows "cuando" and refers to a future, hypothetical event. When "cuando" refers to a future event, the subjunctive is used.
-
Mas no sé qué vas a inventar
➔ Indirect question with 'qué' and future tense (ir + a + infinitive)
➔ This is an indirect question, where the question word 'qué' introduces a subordinate clause. The phrase "vas a inventar" is the near future tense.
-
Pa ocultar los sentimientos
➔ Infinitive phrase with 'pa' (para) expressing purpose.
➔ "Pa" is a colloquial shortening of "para" which means "in order to" or "for the purpose of". The infinitive "ocultar" describes the purpose.
-
Y, de pronto, sin quererlo nos crucemos
➔ Subjunctive mood after an adverbial phrase of time ('de pronto') expressing uncertainty about a future event.
➔ The verb 'crucemos' is in the subjunctive because of the uncertainty implied by "de pronto, sin quererlo." It highlights the hypothetical nature of the event.
-
Me muero porque eso nos pase
➔ Subjunctive after 'porque' expressing a desired but uncertain event.
➔ Even though 'porque' often indicates cause, here it introduces a clause expressing something strongly desired. Because the event is uncertain, the verb "pase" is in the subjunctive.
-
Que más no puedo
➔ Impersonal construction expressing inability ('más no poder').
➔ "Más no puedo" literally translates to "I can't more," but its meaning is closer to "I can't take it anymore" or "I can't do this anymore". It expresses a limit of one's capacity or endurance.
-
Desde que te marchaste, solo vivo de tus recuerdos
➔ 'Desde que' introducing a time clause with the present indicative to describe an ongoing situation.
➔ "Desde que" means "since". The use of the present indicative "vivo" indicates that the action continues up to the present moment.
-
Tu silencio y el mío son culpa del maldito ego
➔ Use of possessive pronoun 'mío' to refer back to the speaker.
➔ "Mío" is a possessive pronoun that refers back to "yo" (I), meaning "mine".
