In this episode, you learn how to talk about the things you like and don't like using the verb good. Start a fun topic to connect with your amigos over the things you love. Are you ready for this? Yes, mam. First we'll listen

Speaker 2

Speaker 1

No I mean supposa no Legustan South Park near riek Amurti. Soon Muekstrania's elokas paraya ah yah lewustan las romanticas okay, too difficult. Let's see. We talked about three TV shows, Los Simpsons, South Park, e Driek and Marty Gaspar.

Speaker 2

Says megusta la silo Simpsons.

Speaker 1

I like the series Los Simpsons, and then he.

Speaker 2

Said, mehusta la sis and emasesty.

Speaker 1

I like animated series from the USA. Did you notice something about gusta in each case? When he referred to la sidi singular, he used gusta me gusta LACEDI Los Simpsons. But when he talked about last saidis plural? He said, gustan mey gustan las saidis the stallosunidos. What's important here is that the very gusta changes depending on whether the

thing you like is singular or plural. May gusta laced singular, may wustan last sais plural, And in the conversation I use the same structures to refer to the shows I like, may gusta South Park singular, me gusta dric and Morty singular two. But may wustan las sais comor negro plural. By the way, umor negro means dark, hue more en espanol or more nero, may wustan last serious more nero. So, as a simple rule, use gusta when the thing you like is singular, and gustan with an end at the

end when it's plural. Easy psy. What if the thing you like is an action averb. In that case we use gustar in the singular form because averb comes as a singular object. That's why Gaspar asked.

Speaker 2

The gusta last saies contespos?

Speaker 1

Do you like to watch serious with your wife? The verb he uses is better to watch the gusta bear. He didn't say the woolstan beer, but the gusta beart. So with verbs, use the singular form of gustar gusta may gusta versaious. I like wat serious, may gusta itra sine, I like going to the movies. Mayosta bear, may wusta ear. That's how it works. And finally, some thoughts on the word may and they may gusta tegusta and so on.

Those words indicate who's the person that likes the object, or think when I say may gusta is to me, mayusta South Park. To me, that series is good, but the gusta South Park that's to you, you like that series the wusta. You can notice in both cases what changes is the may or te before gusta, but the very gusta remains the same. Learning those two forms may

wusta tegusta is a good starting point. Why because most of your first conversations will be using may or te and to say you don't like something simply at no before that structure. For example, when I don't like a series, I would say no me gusta las sidi. You see mui fasil another you know the vocabulary. Let's listen to the dialogue again. Here we go Agusta Algonas Park.

Speaker 2

See megusta la seria Lo Simpsons, Magusta la sais and emdas estasnios the wusta los Simpsons.
