NOTES

In Spanish [h1]{PAGETITLE}[/h1]

In anish, GUSTAR means “to be pleasing.” In English, we would say “to like”)

Example: I like to sing.

Me / gusta / cantar.
to me / is pleasing / to sing


In Spanish, GUSTAR refers to the item being liked rather than the person doing the liking.

Me gusta bailar. / I like to dance. / (To me/is pleasing/to dance)
No me gusta estudiar. / I don’t like to study. / (Not/to me/is pleasing/to study)
¿Te gusta leer? / Do you like to read? / (To you is pleasing/to read?)
¿No te gusta cocinar? / Don’t you like to cook? / (Not/to you/is pleasing/to cook?)


NOTE: In Spanish: The word order is actually “backwards”:

Who is doing the “liking”?

me / me / Me gusta cantar / I like to sing.
te / you / ¿Te gusta cantar? / Do you like to sing?
le / him/her / Le gusta cantar. / He/she likes to sing
nos / us / Nos gusta cantar / We like to sing.
les / them / Les gusta cantar / They like to sing


le can refer to multiple persons. For clarification of to whom the item is pleasing, add the following:
A él le gusta nadar. He likes to swim.
A ella no le gusta nadar. She doesn’t likes to swim

You can also add a noun or someone’s name in the same way.

A Paco le gusta cantar. Paco likes to sing.

A la muchacha le gusta jugar al tenis. The girl likes to play tennis.

*NOTE: When a comes before the word el (the), the words contract to al.

Al muchacho no le gusta leer. The boy doesn’t like to read.
