KJV — word by word

She -- This is from the third-person, singular form of the following verb.

hath -- (CW, WT) This is not the helping verb "has" like we have in English. indicates that the following verb is the tense indicating an action competed in the past. - The word translated as "have" means to "have," "possess," "bear," "keep close," "hold in," "have means to do,"  "to have due to one," or "keep" and many specific uses. This verb isn't used to form past tenses as the helper verb does in English.

done -- The Greek word translated as "done" has the primary meaning of "making" or producing" something or "causing" or "performing" as service. It describes a productive action.  It is not as broad a word as the English "do", which covers all actions, productive or not.

what -- (WP) The word translated as "What" is a demonstrative pronoun ("this" "that"), but it often acts as a pronoun ("he," "she"), especially a connective pronoun ("the one that") introducing a dependent clause. It begins the sentence, emphasizing it. In Greek the most important words comes first. It is in the form of an object but it is not the object of "done" but of "has."

she could: --- (IW) There is nothing that can be translated as "she could" in the Greek source. 

she -- This is from the third-person, singular form of the following verb.

is -- This helping verb "is" indicates that the following verb is the present tense, but it is the same tense as the previous two verbs ("does", and "has"). 

come -- (WW) This word doesn't mean "come" but literally "get before." Jesus uses this Greek verb only here. It is a compound verb that means to "take or receive before", "take or seize beforehand", "to be beforehand with", "anticipate", "anticipate the event", "prejudge", and "repeat from the origin." It is not built on the base of the very common word translated in the NT as "come." The root word has the sense of "get" in English. The prefix means "before." See below. The sense is clearly "she anticipates." 

aforehand -- This is from the prefix that means "before" of the previous verb.

to -- This "to" is added because the infinitive form of the following verb requires a "to" in English. However, the Greek infinitive acts more like a noun describing the action than English infinitives, especially as subjects and objects.

anoint -- (CW) The verb "anoint" is also used only here by Jesus, This verb means "to rub with ointment" and "anoint". This is NOT the same word that means "anoint" that is the basis for the word "christ", the anointed. However, this does bring to mind a different meaning of "anointed" for Christ: he was anointed for his burial before his death. The verb is in the form of an infinite, which acts more like a noun in English like we would use "anointing." Nor is this the word that is usually translated as "anoint." Though the form of this verb is technically an infinitive, here is should be translated as a noun (a gerund), rubbing.

my -- "My" is the regular first-person pronoun in Greek in the possessive form, so "my" or "of me".

missing "the" -- (MW) The untranslated word is the Greek definite article, which usually precedes a noun and, without a noun, takes the meaning of "the one." The Greek article is much closer to our demonstrative pronouns ("this", "that", "these", "those"). See this article for more. 

body The word translated as "body" means "body", either living or dead, but it also means anything physical or solid. Like our word "body" it has special meanings such as "body" of proof and the "body" of a document. It is the opposite of "spirit" but more connected to the "soul" because it is part of this life. It is the physical substance of things. See this article on the parts of a human as Jesus uses the words. 

to -- (WW) The word translated as "to" means "into" a place, "towards" as a direction, "in regards to" a subject, and "up to" limits in time and measure.  But it also means "for" a purpose, which is its sense here.

the -- The word translated as "the" is the Greek definite article, which usually precedes a noun and, without a noun, takes the meaning of "the one." The Greek article is much closer to our demonstrative pronouns ("this", "that", "these", "those"). See this article for more. 

burying. -- The word translated as "the burying" only appears twice in Jesus's words in the Gospels. It is used twice by Jesus, once here and once in a similar verse in John describing this incident.  It is constructed of two Greek word meaning "in tomb." It is not a form of the verb "to bury" but has the sense of "entombment" in English.
