Gustar Notes from Today

gustar--to be pleasing to, to like

gusta--singular, use with el or la, or for verbs (I like to sing. Me gusta cantar)

gustan-plural, use with los or las (Te gustan los libros--you like the books)

You need to conjugate gustar just like you did ser.

me gusta/n (I like)                                      nos gusta/n (we like)

te gusta/n (you-informal like)                     os gusta/n (you plural-Spain-like)

le gusta/n (she/he/you-formal like)            les gusta/n (they/you-plural Latin America-like)

for emphasis and to show exactly who likes something you can say A ella, A Juan, A nosotros, etc.

Two rules:

You never say A yo, you say A mí, me gusta

You never say A tú, you say, A ti, te gusta

Please study the pronouns. As with ser, every time we use a verb we conjugate according to the boxes set up in the same way.

yo                        nosotros/nosotras

tú                        vosotros/vosotras

él                        ellos

ella                     ellas

Usted                 Ustedes

Make sure you know what each of the pronouns mean and examples (ie: Rosa could be replaced with ella, Juan y yo could be replaced by nosotros, Carlos y Maria could be replaced with ellos)

I                              we

you-informal         you plural Spain

he                          they

she                        they feminine 

you-formal           you plural Latin America
