Gramática:
-
I ain't seen you in a minute
➔ Doble Negación (Inglés no estándar)
➔ "Ain't" es una contracción de "am not," "is not" o "are not," y "seen" se usa como participio pasado. Aunque gramaticalmente incorrecto, es común en algunos dialectos. El inglés más estándar sería "I haven't seen you in a minute."
-
Love has no limit, let's spend it slow forever
➔ Modo imperativo (Let's) + adverbio de modo
➔ "Let's spend it..." es una sugerencia, un imperativo. "Slow" se usa informalmente como un adverbio que modifica "spend", el inglés estándar sería "slowly". "Forever" es un adverbio de tiempo.
-
I want to be the one to make you happiest
➔ Adjetivo superlativo (No estándar)
➔ La forma superlativa de "happy" es "happiest", pero se usa incorrectamente aquí. Uno debería decir "the happiest".
-
Regardless of what happen, On him let's rely
➔ Modo subjuntivo (incorrecto) + Imperativo con uso incorrecto de preposición
➔ "Happen" debería ser "happens" o, más correctamente en este contexto, "may happen". Además, la frase debería ser "let's rely on him", no "on him let's rely". La oración estándar podría ser "Regardless of what happens, let's rely on Him."
-
It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine
➔ Concordancia sujeto-verbo (No estándar)
➔ El sujeto "It" es singular, por lo que el verbo debería ser "doesn't" en lugar de "don't." La oración estándar debería ser: "It doesn't take a whole day to recognize sunshine."
-
Truthfully it's hard tryin' to practice abstinence
➔ Elipsis (Falta "is") + Gerundio después del adjetivo
➔ La oración implica "Truthfully, it is hard trying to practice abstinence." El verbo "is" se omite (elipsis). Además, "trying" es un gerundio usado después del adjetivo "hard."
