Grammaire:

  • The night seems to fade

    ➔ Présent simple pour les vérités générales/habitudes

    ➔ Le verbe "seems" au présent simple indique une observation générale ou une vérité sur la façon dont la nuit apparaît.

  • But the moonlight lingers on

    ➔ Verbe à particule "lingers on"

    "Lingers on" signifie rester ou durer plus longtemps que prévu. Cela implique que le clair de lune persiste même lorsque la nuit s'estompe.

  • There are wonders for everyone

    ➔ "There are" + nom pluriel

    ➔ Cette phrase utilise la structure "There are" pour indiquer l'existence ou la présence de plusieurs "wonders".

  • The stars shine so bright

    ➔ Adverbe de degré (so)

    ➔ L'adverbe "so" intensifie l'adjectif "bright", indiquant un haut degré de luminosité.

  • But they're fading after dawn

    ➔ Présent Continu pour action progressive

    ➔ Le présent continu "are fading" décrit une action progressive se produisant sur une période de temps après l'aube.

  • If I had the whole world

    ➔ Conditionnel de type II (If + Prétérit, would + base verbale)

    ➔ C'est une phrase conditionnelle de type II, exprimant une situation irréelle ou improbable et son résultat probable. L'orateur imagine qu'il possède le monde entier.

  • I would give it away

    ➔ Phrase conditionnelle (proposition principale) utilisant "would"

    "Would give" exprime une action hypothétique qui se produirait si la condition (avoir le monde entier) était vraie. Cela indique une volonté ou une intention dans une situation irréelle.

  • Surely I would need a queen

    ➔ Verbe modal "would" pour les situations hypothétiques avec "surely" pour insister.

    "Would need" exprime une nécessité hypothétique. "Surely" souligne la conviction de l'orateur quant à la nécessité d'une reine s'il était roi.
