Grammar:
-
Entri in me come svaniscono gli aerei, in cielo
➔ Subjunctive mood in simile clauses with "come"
➔ The use of "svaniscono" (vanish) in the subjunctive mood after "come" expresses a hypothetical or unreal comparison. It emphasizes the manner of disappearing rather than a factual statement. "Come" introduces a simile, comparing how the planes vanish to how the person enters the speaker's inner world.
-
Obbligando chiunque ti veda a parlare solo di te
➔ Gerund with "obbligare"
➔ "Obbligando" is the gerund form of the verb "obbligare" (to force). It describes the action of forcing, which is happening simultaneously with the main verb's action (seeing). "Chiunque ti veda a parlare" uses a construction where the verb after "vedere" is in the infinitive, describing what people are *forced* to do.
-
Sarà così freddo, sarà come per me
➔ Future tense and simile with "come"
➔ "Sarà" is the future tense of "essere" (to be). "Sarà così freddo" means "It will be so cold." The second part, "sarà come per me," uses "come" to create a simile, comparing the coldness to the speaker's own feelings or situation.
-
Chiedi alla polvere che il respiro se non c'è
➔ Imperative mood and elision
➔ "Chiedi" is the imperative form of "chiedere" (to ask). The phrase uses elision: "che il" is contracted to "che 'l" (although it is not written). The sentence uses an imperative verb to convey a strong feeling or instruction.
-
Sono sotto casa tua, voglio vedere dove va a finire la luna
➔ Present tense, desire with "volere", indirect question
➔ "Sono" is the present tense of "essere" (to be). "Voglio vedere" uses "volere" (to want) + infinitive to express desire. "Dove va a finire la luna" is an indirect question, where the interrogative phrase (where the moon ends up) functions as the object of the verb "vedere".
-
Che pensi a me mentre ti mordi la lingua e che fai finta, lo so
➔ Subjunctive after "che" expressing doubt/opinion, temporal clause with "mentre"
➔ "Che pensi" uses the subjunctive mood after "che". The subjunctive here expresses a belief or opinion from the speaker. "Mentre ti mordi la lingua" is a temporal clause, describing when the action of thinking about the speaker is happening. "Che fai finta" again uses subjunctive with "che" implying the speaker's belief.
