Key Grammar Structures

• So don't forget it

  ➔ Negative Imperative

  ➔ Used to tell someone "not" to do something. The structure is "Don't" + base form of the verb. Here, "don't forget" tells the listener not to forget.

• Got a lot of things to be happy 'bout

  ➔ Colloquial use of 'Got', Infinitive of purpose

  ➔ "Got" is used colloquially instead of "have got" or "have" to mean possession. "to be happy 'bout" (about) is an infinitive phrase explaining the *purpose* or *reason* for having the things.

• Got you cussin' on a Sunday now

  ➔ Causative 'Got' + object + present participle

  ➔ This structure indicates that something causes or makes the object perform an action. "Got you cussin'" means "made you start cussing" or "caused you to cuss".

• All they do is run they mouth

  ➔ 'All + Subject + do + is' structure + bare infinitive

  ➔ This structure emphasizes that the bare infinitive verb ("run") is the *only* action the subject ("they") performs. "All they do is run" means the only thing they do is run their mouth.

• How you hatin' on the Lord's day?

  ➔ Informal omission of 'are' before present participle

  ➔ In standard English, this would be "How *are* you hatin'?" The auxiliary verb "are" is often omitted in informal speech and lyrics.

• let them get dragged

  ➔ Causative 'Let' + object + bare infinitive (passive)

  ➔ The structure "let + object + bare infinitive" means to allow or permit the object to do something. Here, "get dragged" is a passive construction, so it means allowing them to *be* dragged.

• they ain't shit

  ➔ Colloquial 'ain't' for negative forms of 'be' or 'have'

  ➔ "Ain't" is a non-standard contraction used informally for "am not," "is not," "are not," "have not," or "has not." Here, "they ain't" means "they are not."

• Stop-callin'-me-sis body bitch

  ➔ Imperative 'Stop' + gerund

  ➔ When telling someone to cease an action, the verb "Stop" is followed by the gerund (the -ing form of the verb). "Stop callin'" (calling) means stop doing the action of calling.

• we not akin

  ➔ Informal omission of 'are' with verb 'be'

  ➔ In standard English, this would be "we *are* not akin." The verb "are" is omitted in informal or dialectal speech.

• Y'all-gon'-make-me-sick body bitch

  ➔ Causative 'Make' + object + bare infinitive, Colloquial contractions

  ➔ The structure "make + object + bare infinitive" means to cause the object to do something or to be something. "Make me sick" means cause me to be sick. Also note colloquial contractions "Y'all" (you all) and "gon'" (going to).

• I did all the things I ain't need

  ➔ Relative clause with omitted pronoun, Colloquial 'ain't' for negative 'didn't'

  ➔ "I ain't need" is an informal/non-standard way of saying "I did not need" or "I didn't need." The phrase "I ain't need" is a relative clause modifying "things," where the relative pronoun (like "that" or "which") is omitted.
