Key Grammar Structures
-
Mamacita, ponte en cuatro, te lo vo'a poner
➔ Informal future tense using 'ir a' + infinitive (vo'a poner)
➔ This line uses a colloquial shortening of 'voy a poner' (I am going to put it). The 'ir a' + infinitive construction is a common way to express the near future in Spanish.
-
Esa vaquera 'ta en reversa y yo no me quejo
➔ Use of 'estar' ('ta) to describe a state or condition.
➔ Here, ''ta' is a shortened form of 'está', the third-person singular present tense of the verb 'estar'. It describes the state of the 'vaquera' (cowgirl).
-
No hace falta señal para que conectemos
➔ Subjunctive mood after impersonal expressions ('hace falta que')
➔ The phrase 'no hace falta que' (it's not necessary that) requires the subjunctive mood in the subordinate clause. Therefore, 'conectemos' is in the subjunctive.
-
'Tamo enviciados y eso lo sabemos, ey
➔ Use of 'estar' ('tamo) to describe a temporary state or condition.
➔ 'Tamo' is a shortened, colloquial form of 'estamos', the first-person plural present tense of 'estar'. It indicates that 'we' are in a state of being addicted.
-
Se puso atrás, así que comencemos
➔ Use of 'ponerse' + adjective to describe a change in state.
➔ 'Se puso atrás' means 'she got behind' or 'she positioned herself behind'. 'Ponerse' indicates a change in state or position.
-
¿Qué espera', baby, pa' comerno'?
➔ Informal contraction of 'para' to 'pa'' and 'comer nos' to 'comerno''
➔ This line uses informal contractions common in spoken Spanish. 'Pa'' is a shortened form of 'para' (for), and 'comerno'' is a contraction of 'comer nos' (to eat us), indicating a desire to engage in a passionate encounter.
