Grammaire:

• I'm so glad you made time to see me

  ➔ 虚拟语气 (在“glad”之后省略的“that”从句)

  ➔ 虽然没有明确可见，但底层结构暗示“I'm so glad that you *made* time...”（我很高兴你抽出时间……）。指示语气词（“made”）在口语英语中经常用于某些情感动词（如“glad”）之后，而不是虚拟语气词（“make”）。更正式的结构可能会在“that”之后使用动词的基本形式。

• I haven't seen them in a while

  ➔ 现在完成时，隐含“for/since”的用法，“a while”的用法

  ➔ 现在完成时“haven't seen”表示一个过去开始并持续到现在或与现在相关的动作。“A while”表示一个不确定的时间段，暗示“for a while”或“since a certain time”。

• Is still burned in the back of your mind

  ➔ 被动语态 (is burned)，介词短语 (in the back of your mind)

  ➔ “Is burned”是被动语态，表示该动作是*对*记忆执行的，而不是记忆在做某事。介词短语“in the back of your mind”是一个习语，意思是某事正在潜意识地被记住。

• It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

  ➔ 双重否定 (ain't nothin')，动名词作宾语 (missin' you)

  ➔ “Ain't nothin'”是双重否定。虽然在标准英语中语法不正确，但它用于强调，意思是“is only”或“is nothing else but”（只是/只不过是）。“Missin' you”是一个动名词短语，充当介词“but”的宾语。

• Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

  ➔ 省略（省略了“I was”），过去完成时虚拟语气（“I'd realized”）

  ➔ 完整的短语可能是“Wishin' *that* I *was* realized...”（希望我能意识到……）。“That”和“I was”为了简洁和非正式而被省略。过去完成时中的“I'd realized”（I had realized）表达了对过去某个时刻之前应该发生的事情的遗憾。

• Stayin' up playin' back myself leavin'

  ➔ 动名词和现在分词，缩写形式

  ➔ 动词“staying”和“playing”被缩写为“stayin”和“playin'”。“Stayin' up playin'”按顺序使用两个动名词。“Leavin'”是现在分词。
