Verbs Like Gustar
Gustar= to like
Encantar= to love (as in “to really, really like”)
Interesar= to be interested in
*There are many more. They will be referred to as gustar verbs in the future.
FormulaPart 1
You start out with an indirect object pronoun to talk about who is doing the liking, loving or who is interested.
me= I nos= wete= youle= he/she/it/usted les= they/you all
FormulaPart 2
You will then use the third person singular form (he/she/Usted) of the verb to talk about 1 thing or an activity/activities being liked, loved, interesting etc…
Ex. Me gusta la pizza.
*Since the pizza is being liked and it is singular, you use gusta.
Nos interesa pescar en el río Fox. *Since pescar is an activity that interests us, you use
interesa.
You use the third person plural form (they/ustedes) to talk about multiple things being liked.
Ex. A Pablo le gustan los perros calientes.
Nos encantan las películas de terror.
Since perros calientes and películas are being liked/loved and they are plural, you use
gustan/encantan.
All together now…
me gusta/gustantele + encanta/encantan nosles interesa/interesan
*These are the present tense forms of the verbs. Gustar verbs may be used in all tenses.
Side notes…
To say that you don’t like, love or are not interested in something, you put a NO in front.
ex. No me gusta la tarea. No me encantan los Cubs.
If there are more than one activities, you still use the singular construction.
ex. Me encanta pescar, leer y pasar el rato con amigos.
Side notes…
To clarify who is doing the liking, you may add these before the indirect object pronoun:
A mí me…A ti te…A él/ella/Ud./name le…A nosotros /A____ y a mí nos…A ellos/Uds./two names les…
