    How it works

    This phrase uses the first-person singular present indicative of 'querer' (to want) followed by the infinitive 'quedarse' (to stay). The reflexive pronoun 'me' is attached to the infinitive, and 'contigo' (with you, informal) acts as a prepositional phrase. It expresses a desire to remain with someone.
