Yo quiero un poco de eso pero tú no colaboras
➔ Subjunctive mood (implied) + Conditional tense
➔ The phrase 'un poco de eso' refers to something previously mentioned or understood. 'Colaboras' implies a desired action that isn't happening, hinting at a subjunctive mood. The 'quiero' expresses a desire, creating a conditional context. The sentence structure is a common way to express wanting something from someone who isn't providing it.
-
Que yo muero por eso
➔ Subjunctive clause + Idiomatic expression
➔ The 'que' introduces a subordinate clause expressing the reason for the speaker's strong desire. 'Muero por eso' is an idiomatic expression meaning 'I die for that' or 'I long for that', emphasizing intense longing. The subjunctive mood is triggered by the emotional intensity.
-
Si no te tengo en mi vera yo me desespero
➔ Conditional sentence (Type 1) + Reflexive verb
➔ This is a type 1 conditional sentence: 'If not you are with me, then I despair'. 'Vera' is an archaic term for 'side'. 'Me desespero' is a reflexive verb meaning 'I become desperate'. The sentence expresses a direct consequence of not having the person.
-
Quiero que tú me modelo, quiero ser modelo
➔ Subjunctive clause + Repetition for emphasis
➔ The 'que' introduces a subordinate clause expressing a desire. 'Modelo' can mean 'shape' or 'pose'. The speaker wants the other person to 'shape' them, and then repeats the desire to *be* a model. The subjunctive mood is used because it expresses a wish or desire.
