Grammar notes (4)
-지 못하게 하다 = make (it) not be able to ~
오늘 이 밤이 지나가지 못하게 할 거야
The causative treats the night as a creature — pinned down, denied its passage.
Pattern: [stem] + 지 못하게 하다
Example: 말하지 못하게 하다 (keep from speaking)
-ㄴ 채(로) = while keeping the state
숨을 죽인 채 잠드는 때를 노려
-ㄴ 채 freezes even breathing: everything pauses for one precise moment.
Pattern: [stem] + ㄴ 채로
Example: 켠 채 (with it left on)
-되다 passive + -는 = being repeated
끝없이 반복되는 악몽 속에서
The passive shows who's in charge: the nightmare repeats itself; the sleeper just endures it.
Pattern: [stem] + 지는
Example: 반복되다 (be repeated)
-겠지 = probably will (rhetorical)
난 변함없이 꿈을 지휘하겠지
-겠지 dresses control as confidence: spoken like fate, felt like a smirk.
Pattern: [stem] + 겠지
Example: 알겠지 (you know, right)
