  ➔ The word "gonna" is the informal contraction of "going to", used to express a future plan.

• She love the way I put it down.

  ➔ Simple present tense – missing third‑person singular –s

  ➔ In standard English the verb should be "loves"; the missing "s" is a common colloquial error.

• No one like her, she a sniper.

  ➔ Subject‑verb agreement & ellipsis of the verb "to be"

  ➔ The correct form is "No one **likes** her" and "she **is** a sniper"; the verb "to be" is omitted for style.

  ➔ First conditional with modal "should" for advice

  ➔ "should" is used after "you" to give a recommendation: "you **should** follow Caesar".

• Give me what belongs to Caesar.

  ➔ Relative clause introduced by "what" functioning as object

  ➔ "what" means "the thing that"; the clause "what **belongs** to Caesar" acts as the object of "Give me".

• I like her, she a freak.

  ➔ Ellipsis of the verb "to be" in a coordinate clause

  ➔ "she **is** a freak" is shortened to "she a freak"; the verb "is" is omitted for rhythmic effect.

• My lady's coming to her maw.
