Grammar:
-
Hey, nunca leí este mensaje / Lo perdí entre tanto texto
➔ Preterite (Simple Past) vs. Preterite Perfect (Present Perfect)
➔ "Nunca leí" (Preterite) emphasizes the completed action in the past. "Lo perdí" (Preterite) expresses finished action. While the present perfect can be used to refer to actions in the past that have relevance to the present, the speaker used simple past as to convey completed actions without necessarily highlighting their effect on the present. Use of simple past here highlights the speaker is simply recalling two past events that happened back to back.
-
Y se que ahora está un poco fuera de contexto
➔ Use of the verb "estar" to express a temporary state or condition.
➔ "Está fuera de contexto" indicates a state (being out of context) that is not permanent. Using "ser" would suggest a more inherent or permanent quality.
-
Pensé que tendrían otros tonos / Si algún día te hacía una canción
➔ Conditional sentences (type 2): imperfect subjunctive + conditional simple.
➔ The structure expresses a hypothetical situation in the present or future. "Si algún día te hacía" (imperfect subjunctive) sets up the condition, and "tendrían" (conditional simple) expresses the result.
-
Pa’ que no se sientan especiales
➔ Subjunctive mood after expressions of purpose ("para que")
➔ "Para que" (so that) introduces a clause expressing the purpose of an action. Because it expresses purpose, the verb "sentir" is conjugated in the subjunctive mood (sientan).
-
Si mi algoritmo está empeñado / en que tu eres la correcta
➔ "Estar empeñado en" + infinitive/noun clause: to be determined/bent on/insistent on
➔ "Estar empeñado en" expresses a strong determination or insistence. The algorithm is strongly pushing the idea that the person is the right one.
-
A ver si pasas a recoger tu abrigo
➔ "A ver si" + indicative mood: Let's see if...
➔ "A ver si" is an expression used to express hope or expectation that something will happen. It is always followed by a verb in the indicative mood. In this case, it expresses a request that she comes to pick up her coat.
