Key Grammar Structures
-
¿Qué tiene la niña?
➔ Interrogative form using '¿Qué' + verb + article + noun to ask about 'what' someone or something has.
➔ This is a question asking about the possession or condition of the girl, with '¿Qué' meaning 'what' and the verb 'tener' implying 'to have'.
-
No puedo reírme
➔ Reflexive verb construction with 'puedo' + 'reírme' indicating the inability to laugh.
➔ The verb 'reírse' is reflexive, meaning 'to laugh oneself', and 'puedo' means 'I can', so 'No puedo reírme' means 'I cannot laugh' or 'I am unable to laugh'.
-
Mi amor ha muerto
➔ Perfect tense with 'ha muerto' indicating 'has died', expressing a completed action.
➔ The phrase 'ha muerto' is present perfect tense, combining the auxiliary verb 'haber' (ha) with the past participle 'muerto' to show that the love has ended.
-
Porque, a ella, yo la quiero con todo mi corazón
➔ Using indirect object pronouns 'a ella' and object 'la' with the verb 'querer' to express love for someone.
➔ The pronouns 'a ella' (to her) and 'la' (her) clarify the object of the love, and 'con todo mi corazón' emphasizes the depth of the emotion.
-
Señor, ayúdala, Dios mío
➔ Imperative or subjunctive form used to make a plea or prayer, addressing God directly.
➔ These phrases are direct appeals to God, using imperative mood in 'ayúdala' (help her) and an explicit address 'Dios mío' (My God).
