Key Grammar Structures

• Yo puedo subir, puedo bajar

  ➔ Modal verb "poder" + infinitive

  ➔ "Poder" expresses ability or possibility. Here, "puedo subir" means "I can go up" and "puedo bajar" means "I can go down."

• Me sobra el tiempo para ganar

  ➔ Impersonal verb "sobrar" + noun + "para" + infinitive

  ➔ "Sobrar" means "to have more than enough." The structure "me sobra el tiempo" translates to "I have plenty of time". "Para ganar" specifies the purpose: "in order to win."

• Podría hacer que el sol eclipse la luna

  ➔ Conditional tense "podría" + infinitive "hacer" + "que" + subjunctive clause.

  ➔ "Podría" is the conditional of "poder," meaning "could" or "would be able to." The subjunctive mood is used after "que" because it expresses a hypothetical or desired outcome. This translates to: "I could make the sun eclipse the moon."

• No existe condición que yo no reuna

  ➔ Negative existential statement "no existe" + noun + "que" + subjunctive.

  ➔ The subjunctive "reuna" (from "reunir") is used because the existence of the condition is uncertain due to the negative statement "no existe." This means "There is no condition that I don't meet."

• Lo que todos quieren tener

  ➔ Relative pronoun "lo que" + indicative

  ➔ "Lo que" means "what" or "that which". It refers to a general concept. Here it translates to: "What everyone wants to have".

• Ya lo tengo mil veces

  ➔ Pronoun "lo" referring to a general concept + "tener" + quantifier

  ➔ "Lo" refers back to the implied object, "what everyone wants to have." "Mil veces" is a quantifier meaning "a thousand times." This translates to: "I already have it a thousand times over."

• Arriesgada y sin límites

  ➔ Adjective + conjunction + preposition + noun.

  ➔ Simple structure describing characteristics. "Arriesgada" (daring) and "sin límites" (without limits).

• Las ganas me mueven

  ➔ Noun + indirect object pronoun + verb.

  ➔ "Las ganas" (the desire/the urge) is the subject. "Me" is the indirect object pronoun, indicating that "las ganas" are moving "me" (myself). This means: "The desire moves me."
