Grammaire:

  • I want you to believe every word I say

    ➔ Subjonctif (souhait/demande)

    ➔ Bien qu'il n'utilise pas explicitement "that" et la forme de base du verbe, la structure "I want you to + infinitif" exprime un souhait ou une demande. Elle implique subtilement un élément subjonctif car l'action est souhaitée, pas nécessairement un fait. Une version plus formelle pourrait être "I want that you believe...", utilisant le subjonctif plus directement. Les niveaux B2-C1 devraient comprendre les nuances de l'expression des souhaits de manière indirecte.

  • Music is what I've got to give

    ➔ Proposition relative avec 'what'

    ➔ 'What' introduit une proposition relative qui fonctionne comme un nom. Ici, "what I've got" agit comme l'objet de la préposition "to". C'est une structure courante pour les niveaux C1-C2.

  • I've got to find some way to make it

    ➔ "Have got to" (obligation/nécessité)

    "Have got to" est une manière informelle d'exprimer l'obligation ou la nécessité, similaire à "have to" ou "must". Au niveau B2, les élèves devraient connaître cette construction, tandis que les niveaux C1-C2 l'utiliseraient naturellement.

  • Lemme hear your funky guitar...

    ➔ Contraction informelle "Lemme" (Let me)

    "Lemme" est une contraction très informelle de "let me." C'est typique du langage familier et des paroles de chansons. Comprendre et utiliser les contractions informelles de manière appropriée est une compétence attendue au niveau B2 et au-dessus.

  • Somebody take it away from me

    ➔ Impératif avec sujet implicite

    ➔ La phrase est à l'impératif, donnant un ordre ou une requête. Le sujet "you" est implicite. Au niveau B2 et au-delà, les élèves devraient utiliser et comprendre les impératifs avec aisance.

  • You gotta go and fetch one

    ➔ "Gotta" (contraction informelle de "got to") + "go and" (expression idiomatique)

    "Gotta" est une autre contraction informelle. "Go and" suivi d'un verbe (fetch) est une façon idiomatique courante d'indiquer le but du mouvement. Cela combine deux éléments informels, nécessitant une solide compréhension de l'anglais conversationnel en C1-C2.
