It just happened: se me rompió

For accidents, Spanish lets the thing do it, to you: se me rompió el teléfono (my phone broke), se me olvidó (I forgot), se me apagó la pantalla (the screen went off on me). Me, te or le says who it happened to.

  • Se me olvidó.I forgot.
  • Se me apagó la pantalla.The screen went off on me.

You need, it takes: hace falta

Hace falta + a noun or an infinitive says what’s needed: hace falta tiempo, hace falta conectar la pantalla. For a particular person, hace falta que + subjunctive: hace falta que me ayudes.

  • Hace falta conectar la pantalla.You need to connect the screen.
  • Apaga la pantalla.Turn off the screen.
