Grammar notes (4)

-없이 = without

지금 이 순간 후회 없이 보여주고 싶어

후회 + 없이 turns 'regret' into an adverb: showing everything, regret-free.

Pattern: [noun] + 없이

Example: 걱정 없이 살아 (live without worry)

-아/어 가다 = keep -ing (progressively)

높아져 가는 낮과 밤의 온도

-어 가다 marks ongoing change: the heat (and love) climbing without stop.

Pattern: [stem] + ア/オカヌン + [noun]

Example: 변해 가는 세상 (an ever-changing world)

-아/어도 = even if

사르르 사르르 녹아내려도 널 안아 줄 거야

사르르 is a mimetic word, doubled for effect; -아/어도 concedes 'even as it melts.'

Pattern: [stem] + ア/オド

Example: 늦어도 괜찮아 (it's fine even if late)

-ㄹ 법하다 = seems likely to

날 사랑하는 법을 알 것만 같아

-ㄹ 법하다 = 'plausibly so'; 알 것만 같아 softens it into an inkling.

Pattern: [stem] + (으)ㄹ 법하다

Example: 그럴 법한 얘기 (a plausible story)
