34. HOW TO USE GUSTAR TO SAY WHAT THINGS YOU LIKE

There are only TWO FORMS:
GUSTA = like 1 thing (1)
and
GUSTAN = like more than 1 thing (>1)

36. 7. GUSTAR’S CONSTRUCTION: DIRECT TRANLATION
the reason gustar doesn’t follow the
subject-verb construction that we are used to
is that it’s actually
BACKWARDS
from how we say it in English.

37. 7. GUSTAR’S CONSTRUCTION: DIRECT TRANLATION
“(A Paco) le gusta la tarea”
actually means
“The homework is pleasing to him (to Paco)”.
GUSTAR =
TO BE PLEASING
