Grammar:
-
Yo, que tú, ni me acercaría a mí
➔ Conditional sentences (type 2 - hypothetical)
➔ Uses the structure 'If I were you, I wouldn't...' expressing advice or a hypothetical situation. 'Que tú' is a slightly informal way of saying 'si yo fuera tú'.
-
Regalame algo de soledad
➔ Imperative mood with pronoun object ('me')
➔ 'Regálame' is the imperative form of 'regalar' (to give as a gift) combined with the indirect object pronoun 'me' (to me). It is a command/request: 'Give me'.
-
Hoy es el día en que todo mal
➔ Relative clause with "en que"
➔ "En que" is a relative pronoun used to introduce a relative clause referring to a time or place. In this case it refers to the day.
-
Llegó y nada me deprime más
➔ Comparison of inequality (más)
➔ 'Más' is used to express 'more' in a comparison of inequality. Here, 'nada me deprime más' means 'nothing depresses me more'.
-
Aunque golpeés, nunca estaré
➔ Subjunctive mood after 'aunque'
➔ When 'aunque' (even if/although) expresses a hypothetical situation or doubt, the subjunctive mood is used. 'Golpees' is the present subjunctive form of 'golpear' (to knock).
-
Va a ser mejor que dejemos unos días
➔ Impersonal expression with 'ser' + adjective + 'que' + subjunctive
➔ The structure 'va a ser mejor que' (it's going to be better that) introduces a suggestion or recommendation. The verb following 'que' should be in the subjunctive mood because it expresses uncertainty or subjectivity.
-
Que fuiste tú a quien he sentido mía
➔ Use of "a quien" as a personal "a" plus relative pronoun
➔ 'A quien' is used when the relative pronoun refers to a person and is the direct object of the verb in the relative clause. The personal 'a' is required before 'quien' when it refers to a specific person who is the object.
