If theres one verb that gave me a lot of trouble when I first started learning Spanish grammar that verb was gustar.
Many of the Spanish lessons and Spanish classes that I took in order to learn Spanish only confused me even more
about the use of gustar. Gustar means to be pleasing to or to find pleasant. But in many instances, Spanish
speakers use it the same way that we use the verb to like.
For example, in Spanish you dont literally say:
I like the dog.
In Spanish you would say:
Me gusta el perro.
That literally means the dog is pleasing to me.
Actually, it means it pleases me the dog.
It may sound strange to your English-hearing ears. But you will get
used to it. Lets try it.
I like the house.
Me gusta la casa.
I dont like the car.
No me gusta el carro.
You like the table.
Te gusta la mesa.
He likes the screen/monitor.
Le gusta la pantalla.
We like the bridge.
Nos gusta...
