Grammar:

• 有人感嘆 終究湮滅

  ➔ Subject-Predicate Structure

  ➔ The sentence expresses a statement about someone feeling melancholic and eventually vanishing. "有人" (someone) is the subject, and "感嘆 終究湮滅" (sigh and eventually vanish) is the predicate. This is a basic sentence structure.

• 終歸一生 我沒埋怨

  ➔ Adverbial Phrase, Negative Statement

  ➔ "終歸一生" (in the end, throughout life) functions as an adverbial phrase modifying the verb phrase "我沒埋怨" (I have no complaints). The negative "沒" indicates the absence of complaints.

• 天曉得 過了 幾個年

  ➔ Rhetorical Question

  ➔ This sentence uses a rhetorical question "天曉得 過了 幾個年" (Heaven knows how many years have passed) to emphasize the length of time and uncertainty. It doesn't expect a direct answer.

• 在人群中 找 相似的臉

  ➔ Prepositional Phrase, Object-Verb-Subject Order

  ➔ "在人群中" (in the crowd) is a prepositional phrase indicating the location. The basic order is Subject-Verb-Object, but here the object "相似的臉" (similar faces) is placed after the verb "找" (look for).

• 而或只是我 記著些 記著些 記著些

  ➔ Parallel Structure (Repetition)

  ➔ The repetition of "記著些" (remembering some) creates a parallel structure, emphasizing the act of remembering and suggesting lingering thoughts. The use of "而或只是" (or maybe just) introduces a possibility.

• How am I supposed to love again

  ➔ Interrogative sentence

  ➔ This is a question in the passive voice. The question is used to show the confusion of a heartbroken person.The word 'supposed to' indicates the subject doesn't want to love again.

• 以為懦弱就是 緊緊擁抱後的處分

  ➔ Complex Sentence, Clause as Object

  ➔ This is a complex sentence where "懦弱就是 緊緊擁抱後的處分" (being weak is the punishment after a tight embrace) functions as a clause serving as the object of the verb "以為" (thought). This indicates a mistaken belief or assumption.

• 兩人世界 怎麼就一定要讓一人悲憤

  ➔ Rhetorical Question, Modal Verb

  ➔ This sentence is a rhetorical question expressing frustration. The use of "怎麼就一定要" (how is it necessarily that) indicates disbelief and a sense of injustice. "一定要" (must) is a modal verb.
