Grammar notes (12)
-으로/로 (以, 用) + -지도 않다 (連…都不)
거짓으로 가득 찬 party 가렵지도 않아
-으로 marks means/state. -지도 않다 = 'not even'. 가렵지도 않아 = 'doesn't even itch'.
Pattern: 名詞 + 으로 / 동사 + 지도 않다
Example: 네 말로는 안 믿어 (我不信你的話)
-첨 (처음 縮約) 初次
내 뒤에 말들이 많아 나도 첨 듣는 내 rival
첨 is spoken contraction of 처음 (first time). 'First I've ever heard'.
Pattern: 처음 → 첨 (縮約)
Example: 첨 봤어요 (第一次見到)
-아/어보다 嘗試 / 의존 名詞 위로
모두 기도해 내 falling 그 손 위로 I'mma jump in
Rise above falling onto their hands. 기도해 (from 기도하다, to pray) + religious 'all pray'. Focus on -위로 (over).
Pattern: 名詞 + 위로
Example: 하늘 위로 날아가 (飛向天空)
-아/어봐 (試試看 / 祈使)
걸어봐 위엄 like a lion 눈빛엔 거대한 desire
-아/어봐 = 'try/do and see' or a light imperative. 걸어봐 (from 걷다, to walk) = 'walk (and see)'.
Pattern: 動詞 + 아/어 + 봐
Example: 한번 해봐 (試試看)
-속에 (在…之中) + 남아 縮約 다시
더 부어 gasoline on fire 불길 속에 다시 날아 rising
-속에 = inside. 불길 속에 = in the flames. 다시 = again.
Pattern: 名詞 + 속에
Example: 비 속에 서 있었어 (站在雨中)
否定命令 -지 마 / 必要 하 (無需)
잊지 마 내가 두고 온 toe shoes 무슨 말이 더 필요해
-지 마 = 'don't'. 두고 온 = 'left behind' (두다 + 오다). 무슨 말이 더 필요해 = 'what more is needed'.
Pattern: 동사 + 지 마 / 필요해
Example: 걱정하지 마 (別擔心)
-아/어도 되다 (即使…也可以)
떨어져도 돼 I'm antifragile
-아/어도 되다 = 'it's okay even if'. 떨어져도 돼 = 'fine even if I fall' = resilient.
Pattern: 動詞 + 아/어 + 도 되다
Example: 늦어도 돼요 (晚到也沒關係)
-아/어주다 為對方做 / 버리다 完全丟棄
난 지금 on my way 갖다버려 줘 너의 fairy tale
갖다버려 (from 갖다버리다, to throw away) + 줘 (주다) = 'throw away (for me)'.
Pattern: 動詞 + 아/어 + 버리다 + 주다
Example: 쓰레기를 갖다버려 줘 (幫我把垃圾丟掉)
명사 -은 (談論主體) 對比
뜨거운 관심은 환영 귀여운 질투는 go ahead
-은/는 marks the topic, here contrasting 관심 (interest) vs 질투 (jealousy). 뜨거운 = hot, 귀여운 = cute.
Pattern: 名詞 + 은 (+對比)
Example: 나는 학생이에요 (我是學生)
-ㄹ 未來 / -內 縮約 미랠
줄 달린 인형은 no thanks 내 미랠 쓸 나의 노래
미랠 = 미래 + 를 (future + object). 쓸 (from 쓰다, to write) + future -ㄹ = 'will write'.
Pattern: 動詞 + ㄹ
Example: 내가 이룰 꿈 (我將實現的夢)
-란 (這種的) + -애 (-아이 縮約)
멋대로 정하네 나란 애에 대해
나란 = 나 + 란 (like me such as). 애에 대해 = 'regarding a person'. 멋대로 = arbitrarily.
Pattern: 名詞 + 란
Example: 그런 생각이란 필요 없어 (這種想法不需要)
