Grammar:
-
PASA QUE DIJE ALGO QUE ESCUCHÉ EN CAP CANA
➔ Relative clauses with “que” (that/which)
➔ The "que" connects the main clause "PASA QUE DIJE ALGO" with the relative clause "QUE ESCUCHÉ EN CAP CANA", modifying "ALGO". It's equivalent to "that" or "which" in English. It means "It happens that I said something THAT I heard in Cap Cana."
-
NO TE VAYAS A ENAMORAR
➔ Imperative with reflexive verb (negative)
➔ "NO TE VAYAS A ENAMORAR" uses the negative imperative form of the reflexive verb "enamorarse" (to fall in love). The pronoun "te" indicates that the action is directed at the person being addressed. It literally means "Don't go to fall in love", but is better translated as "Don't fall in love."
-
SI ASÍ COMO BAILA, CHINGA, VO' A SER SU PLAYLIST EN LA CAMA
➔ Conditional sentence (hypothetical) using "si" + imperfect subjunctive (bailara/chingara – implied)
➔ This sentence expresses a hypothetical situation. While the subjunctive is implied through the tone and meaning, it isn't explicitly written in the first part of the phrase. The sentence translates to: "If she's as good in bed as she is at dancing, I'm going to be her playlist in bed." The "VO' A SER" is a colloquial shortening of "Voy a ser" (I am going to be).
-
QUIERO IR DE VISITA, PARCHARME A SU MAMÁ
➔ Infinitive phrase after verb of desire (Quiero + infinitive)
➔ The phrase "QUIERO IR" uses the verb "Quiero" (I want) followed by the infinitive "IR" (to go). It's a common construction to express desires or intentions in Spanish. "PARCHARME A SU MAMÁ" is a colloquial expression meaning to hang out/bond with her mom.
-
YO HAGO LO QUE TOQUE SOLO SI ME TOCA
➔ Subjunctive mood in relative clauses introduced by "lo que"
➔ The phrase "LO QUE TOQUE" uses the subjunctive mood. While not always required, the subjunctive is often used in relative clauses that refer to an indefinite or hypothetical thing. Here, "TOQUE" (present subjunctive of tocar) refers to whatever is necessary, implying uncertainty. "SOLO SI ME TOCA" uses "tocar" to mean "if it's my turn" or "if I get the chance".
-
DEJO QUE ME ENAMORES, ME LE PONGO ROMANTICÓN
➔ "Dejar que" + subjunctive (expressing permission or allowing)
➔ While not explicitly subjunctive in this case, the construction "DEJO QUE ME ENAMORES" implies permission. The phrase literally means "I let you make me fall in love". "ENAMORES" is not in the subjunctive but functions as the action being permitted. It indicates that the speaker is willing to allow the other person to make them fall in love.
