Verbo gustar
Again, the verbs gustar, encantar, etc. are used exclusively with indirect object pronouns
mete
le
nosos
les
(a mí)(a ti)
(a usted)(a él)(a ella)
(a nosotros)(a vosotros)
(a ustedes)(a ellos)(a ellas)
These are mandatory
(for clarification or emphasis)
The prepositional forms are optional
me gusta.El españolel español.
I like Spanish.
Spanish is pleasing to me.
Me gusta
It turns out, then, that the sentence in Spanish is exactly the reverse of that in English, in its sense,
and also in its word order.
Of course, it is possible to use other forms. Gustas, for example is used frequently.
Me gustas (tú).You please me. (I like you.)
When gustar is used with one or more infinitives, only the third person singular is used.
Me gusta leer.Me gusta leer, jugar fútbol, y
viajar.
