Key Grammar Structures
-
Will you be someone to say goodbye?
➔ Future simple with modal verb *will* + infinitive phrase as complement
➔ The modal verb "will" forms a future‑time question, and the infinitive phrase "to say goodbye" functions as a complement of the noun "someone".
-
Will you be someone to wipe your eye?
➔ Future simple with modal *will* + infinitive phrase as complement (same pattern as previous line)
➔ Here "will" creates a future‑time question, and "to wipe your eye" is the infinitive phrase that complements "someone".
-
I will take the lead.
➔ Simple future with modal *will* + base verb
➔ "will" marks the future, and the base verb "take" shows the action that will happen.
-
When there's no more room to make it grow.
➔ Temporal clause with *when* + present simple referring to a future condition
➔ "When" introduces a temporal clause; the present simple "there's" is used because the clause refers to a future situation.
-
I still hope that you will miss me when I'm gone.
➔ Verb *hope* + that‑clause; future in the past (*will* in subordinate clause)
➔ The main verb "hope" is followed by a *that*‑clause; inside the clause, "will" expresses a future event relative to the time of hoping.
-
Somehow I knew that it would be this way.
➔ Past simple *knew* + that‑clause with *would* (future in the past)
➔ "knew" is in the simple past; the *that*‑clause contains "would be", which is a past‑tense form used to refer to a future situation imagined at that past time.
-
You wanted the best, but it wasn't me.
➔ Past simple contrast with coordinating conjunction *but* + negative past simple *wasn't*
➔ "wanted" and "wasn't" are both in the simple past; the conjunction "but" links two contrasting ideas.
-
Remember all the simple things you know.
➔ Imperative verb *remember* + object + relative clause *you know*
➔ "Remember" is an imperative giving a command; "you know" is a relative clause that modifies "things".
-
Will you need me now?
➔ Future simple question with modal *will* + verb *need*
➔ "Will" forms the future, and the verb "need" follows it to ask about a future requirement.
-
My mind is just a crutch.
➔ Simple present copular sentence with *is* + predicate nominative
➔ "is" links the subject "my mind" to the noun phrase "just a crutch", which describes the subject.
