Key Grammar Structures

  • We're the fuckin' animals

    ➔ Contraction 'We're', Present Simple Tense (to be verb), Adjective 'fuckin'' (slang, intensifier), Definite Article 'the', Noun 'animals' (plural)

    ➔ The sentence uses the contraction "We're", which is a short form of "We are". "Animals" is a plural noun, and "the" is a definite article, specifying that it refers to particular animals (implied to be ourselves or those we identify with). "Fuckin'" is used as an intensifier before the noun; although it is generally considered vulgar, here it serves to emphasize the wild or unrestrained nature implied by 'animals'.
