Questions & Answers about Ven aquí y pon la música dramática.

Why is "Come" translated as Ven here?
Ven is the irregular informal command (affirmative tú imperative) of the verb venir (to come). You use it when telling a friend, family member, or someone you know well to come to you.
Wait, doesn't poner mean "to put"? Why does the translation say "play"?
Yes, poner usually means "to put" or "to place." However, when talking about music, a movie, or the TV, poner is commonly used to mean "to play" or "to turn on." Pon is its irregular informal command, so pon la música literally means "put on the music," which we translate as "play the music."
Could I use acá instead of aquí?
Yes! In Latin America, acá is very common and means the exact same thing as aquí (here). Saying Ven acá is a very natural and frequent way to say "Come here."
Why is it la música dramática instead of la dramática música?
In Spanish, descriptive adjectives like dramática usually come right after the noun they describe (música). This is a good reminder that Spanish word order is often the opposite of English when it comes to adjectives.
