Here’s how you put it together: • Ask yourself. Who am I talking about? Who is something pleasing to? For example, I want to say “My friend and I like running.” In Spanish, we’d actually say “Running is pleasing to my friend and me.” Another way of saying “My friend and I” is “us.” • Find the appropriate box for that person. I see the “us” box is at the top and on the right. I’m going to use “Nos gusta __________.” • Plug in your verb! “Correr” means “to run.” So my whole sentence is “Nos gusta correr” – “To run is pleasing to us.” * Me gusta correr.Running pleases/is pleasing to me. * Te gusta patinar.Skating pleases/ is pleasing to you * Nos gusta mirar television Watching television is pleasing to us.
