El verbo gustar (needs edit)

For the moment, you will just be introduced to a frequently-used verb in Spanish, “gustar”. In later lessons, we will explain more about how the verb works. For now, you can learn from the chart below that you will be using the verb a little differently than other -ar verbs; as you can see, you use the third person ending throughout, and different pronouns (me, te, le, nos, os, les). You will be seeing and using this verb a lot, especially with infinitives to talk about what you like to do.

gustar – to like
singular plural
1a me gusta nos gusta
2a te gusta os gusta
3a le gusta les gusta
