Key Grammar Structures
-
Ninguém paga minha luz, por isso que ela é minha
➔ Cleft sentence with 'por isso que'
➔ This sentence emphasizes the reason *why* the light belongs to the speaker. 'Por isso que' translates to 'that's why' or 'that is the reason that'. The possessive pronoun 'minha' (my) is used to show ownership of the light.
-
Sou um ser de luz e ela brilha sozinha
➔ Use of 'ser' (to be) for description; adverb 'sozinha' (alone)
➔ 'Sou' is the first-person singular form of the verb 'ser', used for permanent characteristics or descriptions. 'Sozinha' is an adverb modifying the verb 'brilha' (shines), indicating the light shines by itself.
-
Quem manda é a 30, quero ver subir, subir lá
➔ Emphasis using 'Quem...é'; infinitive verb after 'quero ver'
➔ 'Quem manda é a 30' emphasizes that '30' (likely a reference to a gang or crew) is in charge. 'Quero ver subir' means 'I want to see [someone] rise/climb'. 'Subir' is in the infinitive form because it follows the verb 'ver' (to see).
-
Pode ser Noronha ou Jeri', eu prefiro
➔ Subjunctive mood with 'pode ser'; verb preference 'prefiro'
➔ 'Pode ser' (it could be) indicates possibility and requires the subjunctive mood in some contexts, though here it's more conversational. 'Prefiro' (I prefer) is a simple statement of preference.
-
Difícil memo' é não sair ferido
➔ Emphasis using 'memo'; negative infinitive 'não sair'
➔ 'Memo' is a colloquial way of adding emphasis, similar to 'really' or 'very'. 'Não sair ferido' (not to leave wounded) uses the negative infinitive form 'não + infinitive'.
-
Eu te mostro como se namora um vampiro
➔ Indirect question with 'como'; reflexive verb 'namorar' (to date/court)
➔ The phrase 'como se namora' introduces an indirect question, meaning 'how one dates'. 'Namorar' can be reflexive in this context, indicating the act of dating someone.
-
Passei o dia pensando nessa vampira
➔ Past tense with 'passei'; demonstrative adjective 'nessa'
➔ 'Passei' is the first-person singular past tense of the verb 'passar' (to spend). 'Nessa' is a contraction of 'em essa', meaning 'in that', referring to the vampire.
